About HashiCorp Consul
A multi-cloud service networking platform to connect and secure services across any runtime platform and public or private cloud. Real-time health and location information of all services. Progressive delivery and zero trust security with less overhead. Receive peace of mind that all HCP connections are secured out of the box. Gain insight into service health and performance metrics with built-in visualization directly in the Consul UI or by exporting metrics to a third-party solution. Many modern applications have migrated towards decentralized architectures as opposed to traditional monolithic architectures. This is especially true with microservices. Since applications are composed of many inter-dependent services, there's a need to have a topological view of the services and their dependencies. Furthermore, there is a desire to have insight into health and performance metrics for the different services.

Istio
Connect, secure, control, and observe services. Istio’s traffic routing rules let you easily control the flow of traffic and API calls between services. Istio simplifies configuration of service-level properties like circuit breakers, timeouts, and retries, and makes it easy to set up important tasks like A/B testing, canary rollouts, and staged rollouts with percentage-based traffic splits. It also provides out-of-box failure recovery features that help make your application more robust against failures of dependent services or the network. Istio Security provides a comprehensive security solution to solve these issues. This page gives an overview on how you can use Istio security features to secure your services, wherever you run them. In particular, Istio security mitigates both insider and external threats against your data, endpoints, communication, and platform. Istio generates detailed telemetry for all service communications within a mesh.
