This book shows how to solve difficult service-to-service communication challenges around security, observability, routing, and resilience with an Istio-based service mesh. Christian E. Posta and Rinor Maloku show how Istio allows you to define these traffic policies as configuration and enforce them consistently without needing any service-code changes.

The authors show how to implement this powerful new architecture and move your application-networking concerns to a dedicated infrastructure layer. Non-functional concerns stay separate from your application, so your code is easier to understand, maintain, and adapt regardless of programming language.
