Microservices Deployment Patterns with Istio Virtual Internship
In this advanced virtual internship, students will explore the world of microservices and learn how to deploy and manage them using the Istio service mesh. They will gain hands-on experience with Istio's features for traffic management, security, and observability, and apply these concepts to build robust and scalable microservices-based applications. Upon completion, students will be equipped with the skills to design, deploy, and maintain microservices architectures in a production environment.
