Istio: Weaving, Securing and Observing microservices
summary
Istio wires microservices with Envoy sidecars that intercept traffic, Pilot pushes configs and Citadel issues certificates, Mixer splits into telemetry and policy components and now supports out‑of‑process adapters. Demo shows guestbook with versioned routing, Watson tone analyzer via a ServiceEntry, and permissive mutual TLS for incremental rollout. Project hits about 200 contributors, ships Istio 1.0.x (1.0.2) and previews 1.1 features: multi‑cluster beta, improved performance and easier adapter delivery.
