As stated in the reactive manifesto cloud-native reactive applications need to be resilient: The system stays responsive in the face of failure. This applies not only to highly-available, missi...

For cloud-native applications Kubernetes and Istio deliver a lot of important functionality out of the box, for example to ensure resiliency and scalability. This functionality works generically fo...

In order to learn more about microservices, container orchestration and service meshes, I’ve set up a local development environment with Minikube, Istio and tools like Kiali and created a sample ap...

As developer I like to do as much development as possible locally, because it’s generally easier and faster to develop and debug code. In order to build cloud-native applications and microservices,...
