Is this a production ready solution?

[ysyyork]

I wanna combine kubernetes + envoy + grpc in production. This solution looks great from my point of view but since I'm new in this area, really wanna hear if this architecture is production ready. My only concern is within each pod, there will always be a envoy container alongside with the application container. Won't this cause issue about consuming too much resource just for envoy? Thanks.

This was just an example for my own learning. I currently use istio for my projects.

Istio uses the side car pattern (container in each pod) as well.
