A bunch of demos that show how to install and configure Istio on a Multi-Clusters environment.
The approach taken in this demos is to use the Istio Ingress and Egress Gateways to integrate two clusters. This is different than the one used with Istio Multicluster and can be used for cases when the Istio Multicluster Prerequisites can't be fulfilled, when its design of one big mesh isn't desired or as an alternative way to deploy Multi-Cluster.
The following demos are available:
- Distributed Bookinfo - This demonstrates the use of Istio ingress/egress gatways to integrate two clusters where both of them are public (e.g. IBM Kubernets Clusters) or one of them is private (e.g. IBM Cloud Private).
- Distributed Guestbook - Similar to the Distributed Bookinfo demo but with the IBM Guestbook as the demo distributed app.
- Secured Distributed Bookinfo - Similar to the Distributed Bookinfo demo with the change of using a Root CA to enable an end-to-end secured communication.
The demos in this repository are based on work done by @rshriram [https://github.com/rshriram/istio_federation_demo] and @ZackButcher [https://github.com/ZackButcher/hybrid-demo].
