Playing with Istio Service Mesh on Kubernetes

What is Istio?

Google presents Istio as an open platform to connect, monitor, and secure microservices.

Istio is a service mesh implementation that provides many cloud-native capabilities like:

Traffic management: Service Discovery, Load balancing, Failure recovery, A/B testing, Canary releases, etc…
Observability: Request Tracing, Metrics, Monitoring, Auditing, Logging, etc…
Security: ACLs, Access control, Rate limiting, End-to-end authentication, etc…

Istio delivers all these great features without any changes to the code of the microservices running with it on the same Kubernetes cluster.

In our case, we already implemented many of these features and capabilities when we were writing our microservices. If we had Istio at the beginning, we could save so much effort and time, by delegating all of these capabilities to Istio.

My new book is here !!

Playing with Java Microservices on Kubernetes and OpenShift is here !

Today, November 24th 2018, I released my new book Playing with Java Microservices on Kubernetes and OpenShift!! Finally, after ten months of work, tests, POCs and many edition iterations, the newborn is here !

The book is edited and sold on the LeanPub platform:

The book is sold mainly in two different offers:

The Book only
The Book + one hour of training about Java Microservices and Kubernetes/OpenShift

I have some ideas about making some other packages, I will post about them soon ! Stay tuned !!

I hope that this book satisfies all your needs about the Java Microservices in the Kubernetes and OpenShift ecosystem..

Many other subjects will be covered.. Yeah ! LeanPub gives me the opportunity to deliver as many updates that I can write 😀 this is cool ! you pay once, you get everything !!

You can grab it from Leanpub or Amazon 😎
