Enable your Microservices with Advanced Resiliency and Fault Tolerance Leveraging Istio
summary
Claims that Istio extracts resiliency from apps into the platform and uses Envoy sidecars, Pilot and Mixer to enforce routing, rate limits and circuit breakers. Demo uses the Bookinfo pattern with a relational DB, Prometheus and Zipkin for metrics and tracing, plus an internal "Istio analytics" fault-injection UI that sometimes fails. Shows traffic can be routed by header or percentage, a 20s injected delay breaks the app until a circuit breaker ejects the bad instance, and Envoy is claimed to handle 5 million requests per second, all via Istio and Envoy instrumentation.
