Key Points

1. useful open-source package of app services for distributed apps
2. uses sidecar pattern to pair app services to another app container
3. useful for distributed apps in a Kubernetes runtime
4. can help lower dependencies on cloud specific providers like AWS, Azure, etc improving portability, lowering operations costs
5. compare with other similar frameworks for app services that generate services for domain objects
