Getting Started with TSB

In this guide, you can quickly learn how TSB functions, and how to address common use cases.

Before You Begin​

The exercises in this guide are written from the perspective of users of the Hosted TSB Management Plane, but apply also to on-prem TSB MP installs. In this guide, we assume you have:

  • Obtained access to the TSB Management Plane, both the UI and with tctl
  • Onboarded a K8s workload cluster to the Management Plane, with kubectl access to the cluster

  1. Introduction to TSB​

    These exercises explain how to set TSB up to manage applications on your cluster, explaining the concepts of tenants, workspaces, and configuration groups. They explain how to onboard a simple application, expose it with a Tetrate gateway and examine how to observe traffic to that application.

    They briefly cover some of the core security and traffic management capabilities of TSB, such as mTLS, security policies, and traffic shifting.

  2. Use Cases​

    With these guides, you can explore more sophisticated TSB use cases, such as traffic shifting and failover between clusters, tier1 and tier2 load balancing, and techniques to create a zero-trust platform.

  3. Additional Topics​

    Here, you'll find introductions to advanced TSB capabilities, including GitOps, and VM (Workload) Onboarding
