Putting Microservices on a Diet: with Istio!
2 likes446 views
The document presents insights on optimizing microservices using Istio, highlighting key design principles for cloud-native applications and the importance of microservice architecture. It discusses various components of Istio, such as sidecar proxies and traffic management, and provides examples of how to configure services within a service mesh. Additionally, it emphasizes the significance of diagnosability and monitoring in maintaining efficient microservice systems.

Design for Resiliency: Fault-tolerant and self-healing. Design for Elasticity: Scales dynamically and reacts to stimuli. Design for Delivery: Short roundtrips and automated provisioning. Design for Performance: Responsive; concurrent; resource efficient. Design for Automation: Automated Dev & Ops tasks. Design for Diagnosability: Cluster-wide logs, metrics and traces. Design for Security: Secure Endpoints, API-Gateways, E2E-Encryption

Pods are the smallest unit of compute in Kubernetes Labels are key/value pairs used to identify Kubernetes resources Replica Sets ensure that the desired number of pod replicas are running Deployments are an abstraction used to declare and update pods, RCs, … Services are an abstraction for a logical collection of pods providing DNS name Ingress routes traffic from outside the cluster to services and ports based on URL patterns and host Kubernetes Glossary. 13

- 16. 16 Envoy: Sidecar proxy per microservice that handles inbound/outbound traffic within each Pod. Extended version of Envoy project. Gateway: Inbound gateway / ingress. Nothing more than a managed Envoy. Mixer: Policy / precondition checks and telemetry. Highly scalable. Envoy caches policy checks within the sidecar (level 1) and within envoy instances (level 2), buffers telemetry data locally and centrally, and can be run in multiple instances. Mixer includes a flexible plugin model. https://istio.io/blog/2017/mixer-spof-myth.html Pilot: Pilot converts high level routing rules that control traffic behavior into Envoy-specific configurations, and propagates them to the sidecars at runtime. Watches services and transforms this information in a canonical platform-agnostic model (abstracting away from k8s, Nomad, Consul etc). The envoy configuration is then derived from this canonical model. Exposes the Rules API to add traffic management rules. Citadel: CA for service-to-service authx and encryption. Certs are delivered as a secret volume mount. Workload identity is provided in SPIFFE format. https://istio.io/docs/concepts/security/mutual-tls.html

Gateway configures a load balancer for HTTP/TCP traffic, enables ingress traffic into the service mesh Virtual Service defines the rules that control how requests for a service are routed within the service mesh Destination Rule configures the set of policies to be applied to a request after VirtualService routing has occurred ServiceVersion aka Subset allows to select a subset of pods based on labels Service Entry enables requests to services outside of the service mesh Istio Glossary. 18
