{"product_id":"istio-in-action","title":"Istio in Action","description":"Solve difficult service-to-service communication challenges around security, observability, routing, and resilience with an Istio-based service mesh. Istio allows you to define these traffic policies as configuration and enforce them consistently without needing any service-code changes.\n\nIn Istio in Action you will learn:\n\nWhy and when to use a service mesh\nEnvoy’s role in Istio’s service mesh\nAllowing “North-South” traffic into a mesh\nFine-grained traffic routing\nMake your services robust to network failures\nGain observability over your system with telemetry “golden signals”\nHow Istio makes your services secure by default\nIntegrate cloud-native applications with legacy workloads such as in VMs\n\nReduce the operational complexity of your microservices with an Istio-powered service mesh! Istio in Action shows you how to implement this powerful new architecture and move your application-networking concerns to a dedicated infrastructure layer. Non-functional concerns stay separate from your application, so your code is easier to understand, maintain, and adapt regardless of programming language. In this practical guide, you’ll go hands-on with the full-featured Istio service mesh to manage microservices communication. Helpful diagrams, example configuration, and examples make it easy to understand how to control routing, secure container applications, and monitor network traffic.\n\nForeword by Eric Brewer.\n\nPurchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.\n\nAbout the technology\nOffload complex microservice communication layer challenges to Istio! The industry-standard Istio service mesh radically simplifies security, routing, observability, and other service-to-service communication challenges. With Istio, you use a straightforward declarative configuration style to establish application-level network policies. By separating communication from business logic, your services are easier to write, maintain, and modify.\n\nAbout the book\nIstio in Action teaches you how to implement an Istio-based service mesh that can handle complex routing scenarios, traffic encryption, authorization, and other common network-related tasks. You’ll start by defining a basic service mesh and exploring the data plane with Istio’s service proxy, Envoy. Then, you’ll dive into core topics like traffic routing and visualization and service-to-service authentication, as you expand your service mesh to workloads on multiple clusters and legacy VMs.\n\nWhat's inside\n\nComprehensive coverage of Istio resources\nPractical examples to showcase service mesh capabilities\nImplementation of multi-cluster service meshes\nHow to extend Istio with WebAssembly\nTraffic routing and observability\nVM integration into the mesh\n\nAbout the reader\nFor developers, architects, and operations engineers.\n\nAbout the author\nChristian Posta is a well-known architect, speaker, and contributor. Rinor Maloku is an engineer at Solo.io working on application networking solutions.\n\nTable of Contents\nPART 1 UNDERSTANDING ISTIO\n1 Introducing the Istio service mesh\n2 First steps with Istio\n3 Istio’s data plane: The Envoy proxy\nPART 2 SECURING, OBSERVING, AND CONTROLLING YOUR SERVICE’S NETWORK TRAFFIC\n4 Istio gateways: Getting traffic into a cluster\n5 Traffic control: Fine-grained traffic routing\n6 Resilience: Solving application networking challenges\n7 Observability: Understanding the behavior of your services\n8 Observability: Visualizing network behavior with Grafana, Jaeger, and Kiali\n9 Securing microservice communication\nPART 3 ISTIO DAY-2 OPERATIONS\n10 Troubleshooting the data plane\n11 Performance-tuning the control plane\nPART 4 ISTIO IN YOUR ORGANIZATION\n12 Scaling Istio in your organization\n13 Incorporating virtual machine workloads into the mesh\n14 Extending Istio on the request path\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1617295825\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1617295825.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Posta, Christian E.|Maloku, Rinor\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
