How to use Gloo Mesh as an Istio service mesh with Red Hat OpenShift (PDT/EDT Time zone event)

Many people are choosing Red Hat OpenShift as their container orchestrator, but need a service mesh to provide connectivity for their Kubernetes-based applications and microservices. We’ll explore how Solo.io’s Gloo Mesh (building on open source Istio) delivers enhanced security, reliability, and ease-of-use for heterogeneous environments including multi-cluster, hybrid- and multi-cloud. We will show:

• How to do a production-ready install on OpenShift using Image Registry, CNI, and Helm
• How the simplified API helps define traffic routing and policies
• Integration points with Prometheus, Grafana, and Jaeger
• How to set up role-based access controls (RBAC)
• Setting up a heterogeneous multi-cluster environment

We’ll also share lessons learned from deploying Red Hat OpenShift with real world customers, so you can find success faster.
