Istio in Action

De: Christian E. Posta, Rinor Maloku

Narrado por: Derek Dysart

Solve difficult service-to-service communication challenges around security, observability, routing, and resilience with an Istio-based service mesh. Istio allows you to define these traffic policies as configuration and enforce them consistently without needing any service-code changes.

In Istio in Action you will learn:

• Why and when to use a service mesh
• Envoy's role in Istio's service mesh
• Allowing "North-South" traffic into a mesh
• Fine-grained traffic routing
• Make your services robust to network failures
• Gain observability over your system with telemetry "golden signals"
• How Istio makes your services secure by default
• Integrate cloud-native applications with legacy workloads such as in VMs

Reduce the operational complexity of your microservices with an Istio-powered service mesh! Istio in Action shows you how to implement this powerful new architecture and move your application-networking concerns to a dedicated infrastructure layer. Non-functional concerns stay separate from your application, so your code is easier to understand, maintain, and adapt regardless of programming language. In this practical guide, you'll go hands-on with the full-featured Istio service mesh to manage microservices communication. Example configurations and examples make it easy to understand how to control routing, secure container applications, and monitor network traffic.

Excelente contenido y la narración

Excedió mis expectativas, un excelente libro sobre service mesh y kubernetes. Muchos ejemplos prácticos para probar cada concepto. Como todo libro te tecnología rápidamente queda desactualizado, pero en este caso es importante la lectura por los contenidos core que provee, que no solo son utilizados en Istio sino también e Kubenetes Gateway API y otros similares.

Nota aparte el narrador, tono ameno claro y por sobre todas las cosas humano!
