mTLS with SPIRE

This video series will guide you through establishing a secure cross-cluster * mTLS* connectivity between workloads across multiple clusters using SPIRE.

We will start with a blank slate, create our apps from scratch, package them, deploy them to our clusters, and then deploy and configure SPIRE to federate our clusters to establish cross-cluster mTLS connectivity between workloads.

These video series assume that you have some level of familiarity with SPIFFE and SPIRE. If you are new to SPIFFE and SPIRE, check out this introductory article first.

That said, let’s get started with the first video in the series in the playlist below.
