TL;DR Microservices are about communicating through APIs! A service mesh defines the communication interface between microservices. In an orchestrated environment (Kubernetes), containers talk to each other on top of overlay networking. Service mesh is a central source of truth for controlling the information flow between microservices. Mesh enables both the scalability benefits of microservices as well as centralized advantages of monoliths. Service meshes come with built-in observability (logging, metrics, and tracing) for microservices communications....

TL;DR Knative is a cloud-native serverless framework for Kubernetes environments. It is created and open-sourced by Google with contributions from other companies (Pivotal, IBM, Lyft, etc.). Unlike current serverless frameworks (AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, …), Knative eliminates cloud vendor lock-in. Knative usese Kubernetes for container orchestration and Istio service mesh for routing, load balancing, etc. Knative has three components: Build, Serving, and Eventing. Build: builds containers from source code on Kubernetes (on-cluster container builds)....
