Observability for Istio Service Mesh
summary
Istio centralizes telemetry so proxies and mixer produce consistent metrics and distributed traces without changing app code, with the demo showing a Kubernetes/OpenShift soccer microservice app, live traffic split reconfigured from roughly 50/50 to 75/25, dependency graphs from a 2,000-service Uber screenshot, and per-request context injected at the proxy so traces capture player movement and scoring; observability surfaces through Kiali, time-series from Prometheus, and spans in Jaeger.
