新 Consul 學習體驗

新的 Consul 學習平臺 現已上線。若是您是 Consul 的新手用戶，您如今能夠經過

入門

學習來了解 Consul 的使用。這個學習路徑包括工做示例和視頻教程。以後，咱們將繼續用更高級的內容來更新學習平臺。

在過去的幾周裏，咱們還發布了一些實踐指南, 幫助您學習 Consul 並將其集成到基於雲、基於微服務的基礎架構中。

Consul on Minikube 教程和視頻

經過咱們的 Helm chart, 能夠在您的 Kubernetes 集羣上安裝 Consul 服務器和客戶端代理, 構建一個功能齊全的 Consul 集羣變得更加容易。Minikube 在您的筆記本電腦上的 VM 中運行一個單節點 Kubernetes 羣集, 供但願嘗試 Kubernetes 或天天使用它開發的用戶使用。經過這個實驗室體驗, 你能夠用 Minikube 在你的本地機器上運行 Consul。 您將安裝 Consul 並部署兩個服務, 使用 Envoy sidecar 代理經過 Consul Connect 安全地相互通訊。按照 代碼 一步一步地或者觀看一個可講述整個過程的10分鐘視頻 。

Web Application on Consul

Consul-AWS 雲地圖

在 re:Invent 2018上, AWS 宣佈了其新的服務發現工具 AWS 雲地圖的廣泛可用。AWS 用戶如今將可以發現 AWS 環境中的資源和服務, 進行運行情況檢查, 並與其餘服務網格產品集成, 如 HashiCorp Consul.

本簡短的 功能指南假定您擁有一個現有的 Consul 集羣以及在 AWS 雲地圖中註冊的服務。您將學習如何從一個同步到另外一個或雙向同步。

Consul 模板動手指南

Consul 模板是一個獨立的應用程序, 它能夠查詢 Consul 中的服務項、鍵和鍵值。 使用 consul-template, Consul 的鍵/鍵值的存儲可以與任何基礎結構上的任何應用程序兼容。 有了這個 分步指南, 您將讀取 Consul 的一個值, 而後進一步讀取 Consul 服務目錄中的服務 IP 地址列表。

Consul 入門視頻指南

咱們現有的 Consul 入門指南是在您的本地機器上嘗試 Consul 並瞭解核心概念的最簡單方法。但咱們明白, 你的時間很寶貴, 在文本旁邊或代替文本觀看視頻每每更容易。咱們爲五個步驟建立了視頻 能夠在臺式機、平板電腦或移動設備上查看。

咱們但願你能發現新的資源和新的學習平臺是有用的。請常常查看。

【原文】Introducing New Consul Learn Platform and New Resources: Kubernetes, AWS Cloud Map, and Many More

New Consul Learn experience

The new Learn platform for Consul is now live. If you are new to Consul, you can now complete the

Getting Started

learning path. This path includes working examples and video tutorials. We will continue to update the platform with more advanced content.

In the last few weeks, we also published several hands-on guides to help you learn and integrate Consul into your multi-cloud, microservice-based infrastructure.

Consul on Minikube guide and video

Building a fully functional Consul cluster just got a lot easier with the availability of our Helm chart for installing Consul servers and client agents on your Kubernetes cluster. Minikube runs a single-node Kubernetes cluster inside a VM on your laptop for users looking to try out Kubernetes or develop with it day-to-day. With this lab exercise, you can run Consul on your local machine with Minikube. You'll install Consul and deploy two services that communicate with each other securely over Consul Connect using an Envoy sidecar proxy. Follow along with the code step by step or watch a 10-minute video that walks through the entire process.

Web Application on Consul

Consul-AWS Cloud Map

At re:Invent 2018, AWS announced the general availability of their new service discovery tool, AWS Cloud Map. AWS users will now have the capability to discover resources and services within AWS environments, conduct health checks, and integrate with other service mesh offerings, like HashiCorp Consul.

This brief feature guide assumes that you have an existing Consul cluster along with services registered in AWS Cloud Map. You'll learn how to sync from one to the other or bidirectionally.

Consul Template hands-on guide

Consul Template is a standalone application which can query service entries, keys, and key values in Consul. With consul-template, Consul's key/value store becomes compatible with any application on any infrastructure. With this step-by-step guide, you'll read a value from Consul and then go further to read a list of service IP addresses from Consul's service catalog.

Consul Getting Started video guides

Our existing Consul

Getting Started

guides are the easiest way to try Consul on your local machine and learn the core concepts. But we understand that your time is valuable and it's often easier to watch a video alongside or in place of the text. We've created videos for five of the steps that can be viewed on desktop, tablet, or mobile.

We hope you'll find the new resources and the new learn platform to be useful. Please check back frequently.
