solo.io / Hoot: Envoy Proxy Fundamentals and Deep Dive

In this Hoot live stream series we dig into Envoy, the cloud-native proxy technology that drives the data plane for major service meshes (Istio, Consul Connect, AWS AppMesh, etc) and API Gateways like Gloo. Starting from the fundamentals, each demo-filled episode focuses on one functional area like observability, customization, security and more -- to help you get a deep understanding of how Envoy Proxy works, it’s role in cloud-native application architecture, and how to use it.

Hosted every other Tuesday starting on July 21st at 1pm Eastern / 10am Pacific Time.
* Envoy Architectural Overview and Fundamentals
* Observing Envoy: Monitoring Metrics and Logs, Proxy Performance, and Troubleshooting
* Securing Envoy: Understanding Available Security Configurations and Best Practices
* xDS Dynamic Configuration and Control Plane Interactions with Envoy Proxy Data Plane
* Envoy Filters: What are They and How They Work, Understanding the Filter Chain, and Lots of Examples
* Advanced Envoy Filtering and Build Your Own Filters with WebAssembly
