> Lyft developed the Envoy proxy to aid their microservices journey, which brought them from a monolithic app to a production system spanning 10,000+ VMs handling 100+ microservices.

One of the benefits of microservices is the ability to trivially deploy many versions to improve performance and uptime.

You should be using service discovery and deploying multiple instances.
