CoolStore is a containerised polyglot microservices application consisting of services based on .NET Core, NodeJS and more running on Service Mesh.
It demonstrates how to wire up small microservices into a larger application using microservice architectural principals.
Presentation
Our team uses this demo application to demonstrate Kubernetes, AKS, Istio and similar cloud-native technologies in events as following
- Prerequisites
- Overall Architecture of µServices
- Installation
- µService Development
- Open API
- CI/CD
- Service Mesh
- Contributing
- Contributors
- Licence
- Windows 10: The OS for developing and building this demo application .
- Windows Subsystem Linux - Ubuntu OS: The subsystem that helps to run easily the bash shell on Windows OS.
- Docker for Desktop (Kubernetes enabled): The easiest tool to run Docker, Docker Swarm and Kubernetes on Mac and Windows.
- Kubernetes/AKS: The app is designed to run on Kubernetes (both locally on "Docker for Desktop", as well as on the cloud with AKS).
- Istio: Application works on Istio service mesh.
- helm: The best package manager to find, share, and use software built for Kubernetes.
- NetCoreKit: Set of Cloud-native tools and utilities for .NET Core.
µServices
There are several individual µservices and infrastructure components that make up this app:
No. | Service | Description | Language | Database | Endpoints |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Catalog | Serves products and prices for retail products | Node.js | Mongo | http://localhost:5002 or http://api.coolstore.local/catalog |
2 | Cart | Manages shopping cart for each customer | .NET Core | MySQL | http://localhost:5003 or http://api.coolstore.local/cart |
3 | Inventory | Serves inventory and availability data for retail products | .NET Core | MySQL | http://localhost:5004 or http://api.coolstore.local/inventory |
4 | Pricing | Handles a business rules application for product pricing | .NET Core | MySQL | http://localhost:5005 or http://api.coolstore.local/pricing |
5 | Review | Runs for writing and displaying reviews for products | .NET Core | MySQL | http://localhost:5006 or http://api.coolstore.local/review |
6 | Rating | Runs for rating products | Node.js | Mongo | http://localhost:5007 or http://api.coolstore.local/rating |
7 | IdP | Uses IdentityServer4 to authentication with OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect for the whole stack | .NET Core | In Memory | http://localhost:5001 or http://id.coolstore.local |
8 | Web UI (PWA) | Frontend based on vuejs and Node.js | Vuejs + Node.js | N/A | http://localhost:8080 or http://coolstore.local |
Development environment: Up and Running locally with "Docker for Desktop"
-
Make sure we have
Docker for Desktop
running withKubernetes
option enabled. We need to installkubectl
,helm
andistioctl
on the build machine as well. -
From current console, type
bash
to enterLinux Subsystem (Ubuntu)
-
Then
cd
into your root of project
> ./deploys/scripts/build-all-images.sh
It should run and package all docker images.
- Download and install istio-1.0.0 on the box, and unzip it into somewhere, then initialize it with following commands
> cd <istio-1.0.0 path>
> kubectl create -f install/kubernetes/helm/helm-service-account.yaml
> helm init --service-account tiller --upgrade
- Get
istio-ingressgateway
IP address
> kubectl get services istio-ingressgateway -n istio-system -o=jsonpath={.spec.clusterIP}
> 10.96.34.68 <== for example, we get the IP as the left-hand side
- Create
values.dev.local.yaml
file indeploys/charts/coolstore
, and put content like
gateway:
ip: 10.96.34.68
- Apply
istioctl
command tocoolstore
chart
> helm template deploys/charts/coolstore -f deploys/charts/coolstore/values.dev.yaml -f deploys/charts/coolstore/values.dev.local.yaml > deploys/k8s/dev-all-in-one.yaml
> istioctl kube-inject -f deploys/k8s/dev-all-in-one.yaml | kubectl apply -f -
- Add hosts file with following content
127.0.0.1 api.coolstore.local
127.0.0.1 id.coolstore.local
127.0.0.1 coolstore.local
Waiting for the container provision completed
- Install
coolstore-istio
chart
> helm install deploys\charts\coolstore-istio --name coolstore-istio
- Access to following URLs
> curl -I http://coolstore.local # website
> curl -I http://api.coolstore.local # api gateway
> curl -I http://id.coolstore.local # identity provider
- Clean up
coolstore
chart as
> kubectl delete -f deployment/istio/dev-all-in-one.yaml
> helm delete coolstore-istio --purge
> helm delete istio --purge
Notes:
- Global path
Set
PATH
fordocker
,kubectl
,helm
, andistioctl
.
- Run with Nginx (not recommendation)
If you want to run just only
Kubernetes
+nginx-ingress
go todeploys/charts/coolstore/values.yaml
, and modify as followingnginx: enabled: true
Then run the
helm
command ashelm install --name cs-nginx stable/nginx-ingress
Staging and Production environments: Up and Running on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

Istio provide a wealth of benefits for the organizations that use them. There’s no denying, however, that adopting the cloud can put strains on DevOps teams. Developers must use microservices to architect for portability, meanwhile operators are managing extremely large hybrid and multi-cloud deployments. Istio lets you connect, secure, control, and observe services.
