General notes about Kong Mesh policies

New to Kuma? You don’t need this, check TargetRef policies instead.

Policies applied to data plane proxies all follow the same basic structure:

sources:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: ... # unique name OR '*'
    ... # (optionally) other tags

destinations:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: ... # unique name OR '*'
    ... # (optionally) other tags

conf:
  ... # policy-specific configuration

• sources - list of selectors that specify the data planes where network traffic originates
• destinations - list of selectors that specify the data planes the source traffic is sent to
• conf - configuration to apply to network traffic between sources and destinations

Kong Mesh assumes that every data plane represents a service, even if it’s a cron job that doesn’t normally handle incoming traffic. This means the kuma.io/service tag is required for sources and destinations. Note the following requirements for values:

• The wildcard character (*) is supported only as the selector value to match all traffic.
• Tag values can contain only alphanumeric characters, dots (.), dashes (-), colons (:), and underscores (_).
• Selector values can contain only alphanumeric characters, dots (.), dashes (-), colons (:), underscores (_). slashes (/).

Tag and selector names can contain only alphanumeric characters, dots (.), dashes (-), colons (:), underscores (_), and slashes (/).

All policies support arbitrary tags for the sources selector, but there are tag limitations for the destinations selector. For example, policies that are applied on the client side of a connection between two data planes do not support arbitrary tags in the destinations selector. Only the kuma.io/service tag is supported in this case. This includes TrafficRoute, TrafficLog, and HealthCheck.

For example, this policy applies to all network traffic between all data planes:

sources:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: '*'

destinations:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: '*'

conf:
  ...

This policy applies only to network traffic between data planes for the specified services:

sources:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: web

destinations:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: backend

conf:
  ...

You can provide additional tags to further limit policy scope:

sources:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: web
    cloud:   aws
    region:  us

destinations:
- match:
    kuma.io/service: backend
    version: v2      # notice that not all policies support arbitrary tags in `destinations` selectors

conf:
  ...
