Openshift Instana Observability with Istio Openshift Service Mesh

  • 1.  Openshift Instana Observability with Istio Openshift Service Mesh

    Hi, I have a question about instana-agent on OpenShift.

    My client uses Istio OpenShift Service Mesh with all the modules (enjoy, jaeger, etc...).
    Several applications are deployed on the mesh.

    Looking at the documentation, it is mentioned "we currently do not support tracing workloads deployed on the OpenShift ServiceMesh"

    What does this mean exactly?

    Does it mean that the agent is not able to collect information (trace, metric, etc...) if the application is deployed on a mesh?

    As the doc says, although OpenShift Service Mesh is based on Istio and the bypass method might just work, it can't be "supported" by Instana at the moment. Good news is that we can expect a better Service Mesh support coming soon.
