The short and sweet issue is that they improve connectivity between applications and all connectivity oriented issues (tracing, versioning, load balancing, etc) without having us—the developers—write any code for it.

The control plane is an API server that distributes configurations to lightweight proxies (Envoy, in this case), also known as the data plane.
If you think about it Kubernetes concepts, the control plane is the API server and the data plane are all of the "kubelet", or worker, nodes
