Automates Istio and Linkerd configuration for microservices, generating production-ready manifests and setup code tailored to your infrastructure, emphasizing security, observability, and traffic management best practices.

Automates Istio service mesh configuration guidance for DevOps Advanced users, offering best-practice patterns, production-ready code, validation, and infrastructure-as-code support across Kubernetes, Terraform, and monitoring workflows.

Guides implementing Kubernetes NetworkPolicy, RBAC, PodSecurityPolicy, Pod Security Standards, and OPA Gatekeeper constraints to enforce defense-in-depth across clusters, covering multi-tenant protection, admission control, and Istio service mesh policies.

This specialized, end-to-end workflow guides the deployment of applications onto Kubernetes clusters. It systematically covers all critical production phases, including Docker container preparation, generating K8s manifests, structuring applications with Helm charts, configuring advanced service meshes (like Istio), enforcing robust security policies (RBAC, NetworkPolicy), and implementing full observability and GitOps pipelines for reliable, scalable deployments.

A comprehensive guide to implementing Mutual TLS (mTLS) for achieving zero-trust, secure service-to-service communication within a service mesh. This skill provides templates and concepts for configuring mTLS using industry standards like Istio, Cert-Manager, and SPIFFE/SPIRE, ensuring robust certificate management and encrypted internal communication.

An expert architect specializing in designing and optimizing service mesh using industry leaders like Istio and Linkerd. This skill provides deep knowledge of cloud-native networking patterns, enabling secure, reliable microservices communication. It covers advanced topics including zero-trust networking, mTLS configuration, sophisticated traffic management (e.g., canary and blue-green deployments), observability integration, and multi-cluster federation.

A comprehensive guide covering observability patterns for service meshes like Istio and Linkerd. Learn how to implement the three pillars—Metrics, Traces, and Logs—to monitor service health, visualize dependencies, track golden signals (latency, traffic, errors, saturation), and debug microservice communication issues across complex distributed systems.
