This document contains summaries from a presentation about microservices and service mesh. It discusses the evolution from monolithic applications to modular applications to microservices. Key concepts covered include microservices owning their own data, multiple entry points, and distributed computing challenges. The presentation introduces Istio as a service mesh that can provide capabilities like discovery, load balancing and resiliency to microservices externally through sidecars. It provides examples of using Istio on Kubernetes to visualize and route traffic between services.
