Istio Service Mesh & pragmatic microservices architecture

on YouTube ↗01h 01m

" summary

Shows Istio running on Kubernetes with Envoy sidecars and real demos: a customer/preference/recommendation app with v1/v2 versions. Configures 75/25 canary split and 90/10, does request mirroring (mirror copies counted but ignored), and enforces a circuit breaker that ejects a failing pod for 15s after one consecutive error. Uses Pilot, Mixer, Citadel, Prometheus/Grafana, Jaeger and Kiali. All features apply via YAML (no code changes) and the demos prove traffic shifting, retries hiding failures, and pool ejection working end to end.
