Istio

The Istio service mesh extends your container platform (Kubernetes, OpenShift) with essential networking functions for distributed systems. The tool is a open-source project mainly developed and designed by Google, IBM and Lyft. Istio sits on top of your container platform and takes over the key tasks of traffic management, network security, policy enforcement and telemetry collection. Istio’s features make it possible to visualize all traffic in your container platform, restrict traffic with custom rules, encrypt all traffic within the container platform, and control traffic in such a way that new versions of a container application can be rolled out quickly and securely in a production environment.

Features

  • The traffic management of Istio helps to roll out new versions of a container application into a production environment controlled and secure (blue-green deployment, canary release, traffic mirroring)
  • Istio’s security features enable automated two-way TLS encryption for all communication within the container platform (Secure by default, Defense in Depth, Zero-Trust Network).
  • The policy enforcement of Istio allows for the configuration of custom rules for container applications to be enforced at runtime (rate limits, denials, white-/blacklists)
  • Istio’s Telemetry Collection supports the monitoring and visualization of network traffic and the analysis of data (metrics, logs, tracing).
