Course facts
- Observing and monitoring services running on Anthos clusters in multiple environments
- Installing Anthos Service Mesh on Anthos clusters in multiple environments
- Configuring traffic routing, improving network security, and enhancing observability with Anthos Service Mesh
- Creating multi-cluster networking architectures with Anthos Service Mesh
Topics include adjusting existing clusters, setting up advanced traffic routing policies, securing communication across workloads, and observing clusters in Anthos.
This course is a continuation of Multi-cluster, Multi-cloud with Anthos and assumes direct experience with Anthos clusters from that course.
1 Introducing Anthos Service Mesh
- Architecture
- Installation
- Life of a request in the mesh
- Mesh telemetry and instrumentation
- Anthos Service Mesh dashboards
- Anthos Service Mesh pricing and support
- Understand the benefits of Anthos Service Mesh, including running distributed services across clusters and enhancing service observability, traffic management, and security
- Install Anthos Service Mesh on different Anthos clusters and choose capabilities depending on the level of management and automation you want
- Collect workload telemetry including metrics, traces, and logs, and learn to visualize your services on the Anthos Service Mesh dashboards
- Understand Anthos Service Mesh and the capabilities, limitations, and costs of running it on different Anthos clusters
2 Managing Traffic Flow with Anthos Service Mesh
- Networking and service discovery
- Anthos Service Mesh API resources
- Network resilience and testing
- Understand how Anthos Service Mesh learns the network from Kubernetes and builds on top to provide advanced routing capabilities
- Deploy mesh API resources such as the VirtualService, DestinationRule, Gateway, Service Entry, and the sidecar to configure the mesh
- Harden the mesh network by introducing new functionality such as request retries, request timeouts, and circuit breakers
- Test the mesh network by creating failures and delays on specific services to improve the overall resilience
3 Securing Network Traffic with Anthos Service Mesh
- Security across services
- Authentication and encryption
- Service authentication in the mesh
- End-user authentication in the mesh
- Authorization in the mesh
- Bonus: Employee authentication and authorization in the mesh
- Encrypt traffic between microservices to prevent anyone in the network from accessing private information
- Authorize services and requests; ensuring that services only access the information that is allowed access from other services
- Authenticate services and requests to verify trust among services in the mesh and among end users
- Limit service access in the network so that granular controls over the communication can be established
4 Multi-Cluster Networking with Anthos Service Mesh
- Fleet networking
- Single network east-west routing
- Multiple network east-west routings
- North-south routing
- Understand how to do multi-cluster networking, both north-south and east-west routing, with different network configurations
- Learn how to configure east-west networking on different Anthos clusters running on multi-cloud and hybrid locations with Anthos Service Mesh
- Install Anthos Service Mesh on different Anthos GKE clusters, and choose the right network configuration depending on where you want to run your cluster
- Combine Anthos Service Mesh with multi-cluster Gateways and multi-cluster services (MCS) to seamlessly run distributed services
