Overview
Explore how to build scalable and resilient applications using service mesh, cluster peering, and failover in this 43-minute workshop from HashiDays 2023. Deploy a self-managed Consul cluster, migrate services to use service mesh with permissive mTLS, and enhance application resilience by deploying services across regions. Learn about centralized Consul administration challenges and the HCP Management plane. Follow along with hands-on demonstrations of permissive mTLS, cluster peering with service failover, and the HCP Management plane to gain practical insights into adopting service mesh and improving application scalability.
