Crawl, Walk, Run, Fly: Introduction to Adopting a Service Mesh in Your Organization
summary
Explains a concrete adoption path: start at the edge with an ingress gateway, install Istio and Envoy, then roll sidecar proxies out by canarying each workload; enable telemetry with Prometheus/Datadog, move from permissive mTLS to strict, and extend proxies with WebAssembly modules to mutate headers. Demonstration shows injecting sidecars, routing via an external IP, and claims successful federated deployments at hundreds if not thousands of clusters and control planes.
