Introduction to Istio
Workshop
Microservices communicate over the network, yet Kubernetes provides neither encryption nor fine-grained routing nor visibility into traffic between services out of the box. This is exactly where a service mesh like Istio comes in. On the first day you clarify when a service mesh makes sense and compare the leading solutions. Then you install Istio on your own cluster, deploy a first application into the mesh and configure traffic routing with VirtualService, DestinationRule and the Kubernetes Gateway API. On the second day you secure the mesh: mTLS for encrypted communication, AuthorizationPol
