9781617295829: Istio in Action

Synopsis

The “servicemesh” pattern, implemented by platforms like Istio, helps you push operational issues into the infrastructure so the application code is easier to understand, maintain, and adapt. Istio in Action teaches you how to implement a full-featured Istio-based service mesh to manage a microservices application.

Istio in Action is a comprehensive guide to handling authentication, routing, retrying, load balancing, collecting data, security, and other common network-related tasks using the Istio service mesh platform. With helpful diagrams and hands-on examples, you'll learn how to use this open-source service mesh to control routing, secure container applications, and monitor network traffic. You will also bring Istio to legacy systems without changes to your applications and discover how to use Istio in amulti-cloud world with the data layer deployed on a cluster like Kubernetes.

Cloud-native applications can include thousands of clustered containers, distributed components, and complex interactions. To build them effectively, developers need a new approach to infrastructural concerns like monitoring, storage, scaling, orchestration, and security. The Istio platform offers a configurable infrastructure layer called a service mesh that reliably and efficiently manages day-to-day concerns like service discovery, load balancing, encryption, authentication and authorization, circuit breakers, and more. Open source andcloud-ready, Istio is a welcome upgrade from manually managed microservices infrastructure.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Istio in Action is a comprehensive guide to handling authentication, routing, retrying, load balancing, collecting data, security, and other common network-related tasks using the Istio service mesh platform. With author Christian Posta's expert guidance, you'll experiment with a basic service mesh as you explore the features of Envoy, Istio's service proxy. With helpful diagrams and hands-on examples, you'll learn how to use this open-source service mesh to control routing, secure container applications, and monitor network traffic. You'll also bring Istio to legacy systems without changes to your applications and discover how to use Istio in a multi-cloud world with the data layer deployed on a cluster like Kubernetes.
