Istio integrates with a rich set of tools that can add tracing, telemetry, logging and other functionalities to your microservices environment. This session will focus on how a myriad of tools, including several CNCF projects, work collectively to deliver the full functionality of Istio. This presentation covers: 1) How Grafana and Prometheus make makes it easy for your entire team to understand what’s going on with your microservices. 2) How Jaeger can be most effectively used for tracing to get to root cause analysis. 3) How Cortex delivers long-term storage for Prometheus telemetry data, how horizontal scalability and cloud-native storage provides virtually infinite data retention, and how Cortex can solve multi-tenant Prometheus challenges.
