Deploying the Application

Just like always, we need not only a cluster, but also the demo application. This section is not an exception.

We will deploy the same demo application that we used before, so we will go through this fast. There’s nothing new in it.

Pulling the latest version of the repository#

We’ll go to the go-demo-8 directory and pull the latest version of the repository.

Creating a namespace and adding a label for Istio#

Next, we’ll create a Namespace called go-demo-8 and add the label so that Istio knows that it should inject proxy sidecars automatically.

Applying the definition#

We will apply the definition from the directory k8s/app-full and, once all the resources are created, we will wait until the Deployment of the API rolls out.

Sending a request to confirm accessibility#

Finally, to be sure that it works fine, we’re going to send a request to the newly deployed demo application.

Now we can switch back to chaos experiments.

In the next lesson, we will find out how to deploy some dashboard applications to help take chaos experiments to the next level.
