Deploy Istio for Production Workshop - Ramratan Vennam, Solo.io (Part 1)
summary
Workshop shows how to roll Istio to production by doing hands‑on steps: deploy a static Envoy, change its timeout to 1s and observe a 504, add a retry policy of 3 retries and see envoy stats report retries=3; install Istio *1.8.3 via istioctl with revisions and a minimal istiod profile so sidecars can be targeted; and set up observability using the Prometheus Operator, Grafana dashboards (ServiceMonitor/PodMonitor) and Kiali, with metrics appearing after a short delay.
