Istio - The Weather Company's Journey - Nick Nellis & Fabio Oliveira, IBM (Any Skill Level)

The Weather Company currently runs and maintains a "home grown" caching, routing, and authorization framework that is capable of handling 24 Billion requests per day. It serves more than than 40 different data apis to customers worldwide as well as users of weather.com.

We describe some of the benefits gained, lessons learned during this transition.
