Istio Handbook was originally an open source ebook that I created (see Jimmysong. IO/IStio-Handb…). The book was written for 8 months before being donated to the ServiceMesher community, and was donated to the community for co-writing in order to further popularize Istio and ServiceMesh technology. On March 10, 2019, the original book was migrated to github.com/servicemesh… The original book will not be updated.

Istio is an open source Service Mesh framework jointly developed by Google, IBM, Lyft, etc., which began to come into the public’s view in early 2017. As an important infrastructure layer inheriting From Kubernetes and Serverless architecture in the cloud native era, Status matters. The ServiceMesher community, as one of the first open source communities in China to research and promote ServiceMesh technology, decided to integrate community resources and collaborate to write an open source ebook for readers.
