feat(): migrate to anthos service mesh
Istio on GKE seems to be in end-of-life (version 1.1.x, no evolutions) and Anthos Service Mesh seems to be the next iteration of the product.
In this case, Istio should be installed by users. Since 1.4 of Istio, only 1 call to istioctl
is required to install the controle/data place. BTW, there is a « mode » dedicated to Anthos Service Mesh in Istio OSS (called asm
). This mode seems to provide the exact same feature as Istio on GKE.
Doing this kind of evolution can allow to implement new feature like security, operator or funny stuff not tied to old APIs.
