Bringing your own libraries to run a Spark job on a shared YARN cluster can be a huge pain. In the past, you had to install the dependencies independently on each host or use different Python package management softwares.

Welcome to another hands-on Kuma guide! In the first guide, I walked you through securing an application using Kuma in a Kubernetes deployment. Since Kuma is platform-agnostic, I wanted to write a follow-up blog post on how to secure your application if you are not running in Kubernetes. This capability to run anywhere differentiates Kuma from many other service mesh solutions in the market.

It's a fact of modern software development that aspects of our applications interact with third-party APIs.
