How to test Istio and other service meshes
Part of the Gremlin Office Hours series: A monthly deep dive with Gremlin experts. Join us for the next one→https://www.gremlin.com/officehours
Service meshes bring applications together, but not always reliably. Even the most well-configured Istio deployment can have unexpected reliability risks that aren’t apparent until you’re already in production. Latency, single points of failure, poorly defined APIs—these problems can grow beyond a single service and impact the user experience for your entire application.
In this Office Hours session, we’ll show you how to proactively uncover these risks using Gremlin Failure Flags. We’ll explain how Failure Flags works on service meshes, how to create and run experiments, how to identify reliability risks, and what you can do to mitigate those risks.
During this webinar, you’ll learn:
- How to deploy Failure Flags to a service mesh (specifically, Istio)
- How to run experiments targeting service mesh resources
- How to find, mitigate, and re-test reliability risks discovered in a service mesh
