Understanding Istio Control and Data Planes

The previous chapter gave you an overview of Istio, what a simple installation looks like, and how to apply a Service Mesh to a sample application. In this chapter, we will dive deeper into Istio’s control plane and data plane. We will understand the role of each of these components by going through the following topics:

  • Components of Istio control plane
  • Deployment models for Istio control plane
  • Envoy, the Istio data plane

This chapter will help you understand the Istio control plane so you can plan the installation of control planes in a production environment. After reading this chapter, you should be able to identify the various components of the Istio control plane including istiod, along with the functionality they each deliver in the overall working of Istio.
