Istio

Get started with an exciting Kubernetes "Service Mesh" - revised for 2021

The course is around 12 hours, with lots of hands on demos.

  • Fully revised and updated for Istio 1.8 onwards (2021)
  • This course aims to make Istio understandable, and will demonstrate the massive benefits a service mesh can bring to a live Kubernetes cluster.
  • Run Istio locally and try out its features using Minikube. Traffic Management, Telemetry, Distributed Tracing, Security and Fault Tolerance are all explained in detail.
  • Learn how to upgrade a live Istio cluster
Prior experience with Kubernetes is assumed. The course uses Minikube, but you will need sufficient RAM to be able to allocate 4Gb (eg 8Gb Host RAM should be sufficient).
