Deploy an Application

In this quickstart page, you're going to deploy a sample application in a demo TSB environment and validate the success using the TSB UI, and tctl commands.

Before you get started make sure that you:

✓ Familiarize yourself with TSB concepts including workspaces and groups
✓ Install the TSB demo

The TSB demo install will do everything for you, including onboarding a cluster and installing all the operators that you'll need. It will also provide you with the URL and admin login information to access the TSB UI.

Deploy Bookinfo application​

You're going to use the classic Istio bookinfo application to test TSB's functionality.

Create the namespace bookinfo with istio-injection label:

kubectl create namespace bookinfo
kubectl label namespace bookinfo istio-injection=enabled

Deploy the bookinfo application:

kubectl apply -n bookinfo -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/istio/istio/master/samples/bookinfo/platform/kube/bookinfo.yaml

Confirm your services are running​

To confirm all of your services and pods are running, validate with:

kubectl get pods -n bookinfo

Expected output:

NAME                             READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
details-v1-5bc5dccd95-2qx8b      2/2     Running   0          38m

reviews-v3-7745dbf976-4gnl9      2/2     Running   0          38m

Make sure you can access the bookinfo application​

Confirm that you can access the bookinfo application:

kubectl exec "$(kubectl get pod -n bookinfo -l app=ratings -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}')"  \
    -n bookinfo -c ratings -- curl -s productpage:9080/productpage | \
    grep -o "<title>.*</title>"

You will see something similar to:

<title>Simple Bookstore App</title>
