Summary

HashiCorp Consul Service (HCS) on Azure has been released with a set of Learn guides and a video resource to help deploy ACL's and establish a service mesh. The platform allows for the deployment of virtual machines, joining them to a service mesh, and deploying security policies to control access between workloads. HCS enables a policy-driven approach to security and service-to-service communication by leveraging concepts such as service-defaults, service-resolvers, and service-splitters within Consul. This allows customers to test application migration or deployment of new versions with granular control over where application workloads are resolving to.
