Red Hat Service Mesh 1.1 allows you to enable a "Automatic Route Creation" which will take care about the routes for a specific Gateway. Instead of defining * for hosts, a list of domains can be defined. The Istio OpenShift Routing (ior) synchronizes the routes and creates them inside the Istio namespace. If a Gateway is deleted, the routes will also be removed again.

This new features makes the manual creation of the route obsolete, as it was explained here: Openshift 4 and Service Mesh 4 - Ingress with custom domain

Per default all requests inside a Service Mesh are allowed, which can be a problem security-wise. To solve this, authorization, which verifies if the user is allowed to perform a certain action, is required. Istio’s authorization provides access control on mesh-level, namespace-level and workload-level.

This is a very short and hopefully simple introduction on how to use Git when you would like to contribute to projects hosted on github.com. The same workflow should also work for projects on gitlab.com.

To test a second application, a bookinfo application shall be deployed as an example.

The following section finds it’s origin at:

Using Ansible Resource Manager with an ARM template and a simple Ansible playbook to deploy a Virtual Machine with Disk, virtual network, public IP and so on.

OpenShift Pipelines is a cloud-native, continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) solution for building pipelines using Tekton. Tekton is a flexible, Kubernetes-native, open-source CI/CD framework that enables automating deployments across multiple platforms (Kubernetes, serverless, VMs, etc) by abstracting away the underlying details.
