Abstract
A method for accessing a data source is described. A communication for the data source is received from a proxy at a sidecar. The proxy mirrors the communication so that the communication is provided to the data source and the sidecar. The sidecar includes a dispatcher and service(s). The dispatcher receives the communication, is data agnostic, and provides the communication to the data source and service(s). The service(s) inspect the communication. In some embodiments, the dispatcher is an open systems interconnection (OSI) Layer 4 dispatcher and the service(s) include OSI Layer 7 service(s). The service(s) perform function(s) based on the communication.
