Discussion on: Does Sidecar really matter in Kubernetes?

Container life cycle dependencies are the major challenge for the Sidecar. Since there is no difference between the Pod containers, it is difficult to determine which Container start first and which one wraps up in the last.

This is a big issue -- particularly with the service mesh use case. 😔

I really hope the KEP for first class sidecar containers makes its way into Kubernetes one day.
