Envoy Header-To-Metadata Filter
A typical use case for this filter is to dynamically match requests with load balancer subsets. For this, a given header’s value would be extracted and attached to the request as dynamic metadata which would then be used to match a subset of endpoints.
A corresponding upstream cluster configuration could be:
type: EDS
lb_subset_config:
fallback_policy: ANY_ENDPOINT
- keys:
- default
- version
