Application migration security framework using service mesh and bi-directional proxy

A secure application migration method comprising:

• receiving a request to migrate an application from a first of a plurality of computing devices to a second of the computing devices, the computing devices configured in a computing environment;
• deploying a first side-car module on the first computing device and a second side-car module on the second computing device;
• establishing a secure communication tunnel with the first and second side-car module;
• and
• using the secure tunnel, migrating the application from the first computing device to the second computing device.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by an Information Handling System (IHS), cause the IHS to:

• receive a request to migrate an application from a first of a plurality of computing devices to a second of the computing devices, the computing devices configured in a computing environment;
• deploy a first side-car module on the first computing device and a second side-car module on the second computing device;
• establish a secure communication tunnel with the first and second side-car modules;
• and
• using the secure tunnel, migrate the application from the first computing device to the second computing device.
