Amazon EKS - Traffic Routing with Istio
In this lab scenario, you'll learn how to use Istio to perform traffic routing to a pair of sample web applications, V1 and V2, deployed into an Amazon EKS cluster.

Kubernetes manages the production, deployment and monitoring of container clusters, deployments and pods from its control plane and worker nodes. Operationally it is important to understand how these components interrelate and how to patch each of these systems when Kubernetes system and application level upgrades need to be applied.

The content in this learning path will teach you the principles and practices of DevOps to a Level 3.
