Istio and the Service Mesh Architecture DevOps BKK 2018
About me • Manatsawin Hanmongkolchai • Junior Architect at Wongnai
How I sold Istio to my team
How Wongnai monitor microservices
Microservice monitoring • In-service metrics eg. controller time
Microservice monitoring • AWS X-Ray SDK
Microservice monitoring • Sentry
Microservice monitoring • ELB Error Rate
Microservice monitoring These must be integrated into your service AWS
X-Ray
Microservice monitoring The problem in microservice world • Service can
be written in many languages. Not all tools support every languages
Microservice monitoring The problem in microservice world • People in
a rush skip implementing proper monitoring
Meet Istio
Service mesh Istio handle interservice connection Sidecar
How Istio sidecar work? Istio use admission controller to install
2 containers in your pod
How Istio sidecar work? 1. Init container to setup transparent
proxy iptables rule (as root) 2. Envoy running alongside your app as the transparent proxy
What Istio can do for you Monitoring • Network calls
• Tracing
Network monitoring Istio provide insight into your network in layer
7
Total requests 4xx 5xx
Request count of service Response time
Service network monitoring Measured client side Request count Success rate
Resp. time Speed (for TCP) Measured server side
Who call me?
Distributed Tracing • All incoming/outgoing HTTP calls are traced to
Jaeger • Needs to propagate OpenTracing headers from incoming call to outgoing call to track calls correctly
Distributed Tracing • Easiest way is to just integrate Zipkin
OpenTracing into your app
Distributed Tracing
Distributed Tracing
What Istio can do for you • Traffic Management ◦
Routing ▪ Traffic Shifting ▪ Mirror ◦ Fault Injection ◦ Circuit Breaker
Routing • Kubernetes service operates in Layer 4 Cluster IP
Backend Backend Backend Req Req Req Req Req Req
Routing • Istio operate in layer 7 and can do
per-call load balancing Envoy Req Req Req Req Req Req Backend Backend Backend
Split traffic • Split traffic between service (eg. 1% to
new version)
Mirror traffic • Test in production by cloning traffic Envoy
Live version Test version Req
Fault Injection • Intentionally making service worse • Why? Let’s
hear a story
Fault Injection Site Reliability Engineering How Google runs production systems

#WongnaiIsHiring • Wongnai is looking for our first Site Reliability
Engineer • careers.wongnai.com
Chubby
Fault Injection Over time, we found that the failures of
the global instance of Chubby consistently generated service outages.
Fault Injection As it turns out, true global Chubby outages
are so infrequent that service owners began to add dependencies to Chubby assuming that it would never go down.
Fault Injection The solution to this Chubby scenario is interesting:
SRE makes sure that global Chubby meets, but does not significantly exceed, its service level objective.
Fault Injection In any given quarter, if a true failure
has not dropped availability below the target, a controlled outage will be synthesized by intentionally taking down the system.
Fault Injection • Slow down services ◦ Delay 80% of
requests for 5 seconds • Make errors ◦ Return 500 error code for 80% of requests
Circuit Breaker Remove a backend from service if it return
too many errors in a row Frontend Backend Work Queue 503 Timeout F5
Summary Istio provide visibility and configurability to your network. This
is traditionally done by adding library, but in a microservice world you need a cross language solution
The catch Here’s what we found while moving to Istio
• While requiring zero code changes, your service must already be well behaved cloud application
The catch • Do not connect directly to pod IP
(eg. no service discovery - just use cluster IP and avoid headless service)
The catch • Do not mix port type in the
cluster (eg. don’t run HTTP server on port 6379 with another pod running TCP service at the same port)
The catch • Set the Host header to the destination.
Don’t connect to gateway and set Host header to cooking. ◦ This case is really hard to debug...
The catch • External services (ie. outside Kubernetes) but in
the capturing IP range must have ServiceEntry defined ◦ ServiceEntry is cluster-wide
