A service mesh can make a Kubernetes environment more complicated if it must be configured separately from the Ingress controller. In this demo and blog we show how to integrate NGINX Plus Ingress Controller with NGINX Service Mesh to control both ingress and egress mTLS traffic.
How to Use NGINX Service Mesh for Secure Access Control
If services in a Kubernetes environment exchange sensitive data, it's important to control communication among them. With NGINX Service Mesh, it takes less than 10 minutes to set up fine‑grained control. Watch the video demo and check out our step-by-step tutorial.
How to Use NGINX Service Mesh for Traffic Splitting
Traffic splitting is a valuable tool for app development, reducing the risk of outages during app upgrades. With NGINX Service Mesh, it takes less than 10 minutes to implement blue-green and canary deployments. Watch the video demo and check out our step-by-step tutorials.
How to Use NGINX Service Mesh for Rate Limiting
High request volume can overwhelm your Kubernetes services. With NGINX Service Mesh, it takes less than 10 minutes to define a rate-limiting policy that limits each client to a reasonable number of requests. Watch the video demo and follow along in the transcript provided.
How to Choose a Service Mesh
NGINX Service Mesh is officially production-ready! NGINX Service Mesh is free, optimized for developers, and the lightest, easiest way to implement mTLS and end-to-end encryption in Kubernetes for both ingress-egress and and service-to-service traffic.
The mTLS Architecture in NGINX Service Mesh
Service-to-service communication among microservices puts more data on the wire compared to monoliths. Using mutual TLS (mTLS) to encrypt and authenticate that communication is crucial. Here we dive deep into the mTLS implementation in NGINX Service Mesh.
How to Improve Resilience in Kubernetes with Advanced Traffic Management
Improve the resilience of Kubernetes apps with the traffic control and splitting methods discussed in this blog – rate limiting, circuit breaking, debug routing, A/B testing, and canary and blue-green deployments – and learn how NGINX products make them easier to implement.
How to Improve Visibility in Kubernetes
There are two types of visibility data that provide crucial insights into application and Kubernetes performance. Learn how the monitoring tools built into NGINX Ingress Controller and NGINX Service Mesh help improve visibility as you diagnose real-world problems.
Welcome to Microservices March!
Microservices March is a month-long virtual festival of microservices activities here at NGINX. Whether you’re already using Kubernetes in production or your interest is just blossoming, you’re sure to find sessions to pique your interest. Check out the schedule on our blog!
Reduce Complexity with Production-Grade Kubernetes
We explain how production-grade Kubernetes solves the challenges of deploying containerized microservices-based apps, which include culture, complexity, and security. In addition to a Kubernetes infrastructure you need a scalable Ingress controller, WAF, and service mesh.
