19:00 – 20:00 Kubernetes and Istio as a Service Mesh platform, Ofir Makmal

Everyone talks about Kubernetes lately, and they should. Kubernetes is now the market leader in container orchestration platforms, and been adopted by all major cloud providers as a fully managed offering (GCP, AWS, Azure, Oracle Cloud), and being adopted in a growing rate for multiple use cases - as micro-services workloads, Big Data, and Machine Learning. In this talk we will see the greatest promise by Kubernetes - to be a platform for building new platforms, and specifically, about Istio - a Google's open source platform for managing micro-services that was built on top of Kubernetes. We'll review micro-services concepts such as deadlines, retriescircuit breaker, blue-green deployment, canary testing, gradual routing, and more.
