1. A method for implementing automatic instantiation of relevant code segments in a service mesh environment comprising:
snooping at least one identifier from one or more response packets generated by an execution of a code segment from a plurality of code segments having a preferred execution sequence, wherein the at least one identifier at least identifies a next code segment in the preferred execution sequence;
in response to snooping the at least one identifier and prior to receiving a request to instantiate the next code segment, preemptively instantiating the next code segment in the preferred execution sequence, wherein
an initial code segment from the plurality code segments is instantiated in response to a trigger.
