Shape service traffic with Istio policies.
Guides the configuration of Istio traffic policies for service routing, progressive rollouts, and resilience.
When to use it
Use when configuring service routing, canary or blue-green deployments, circuit breakers, retries, load balancing, traffic mirroring, or fault injection.
It changes how the agent configures service traffic, providing Istio resource templates and practices for versioning, timeouts, and bounded retries.
What you provide
The debugging commands require istioctl to analyze configuration and inspect or adjust deployed proxies.
Inspecting routes and endpoint discovery requires an existing deployment with an Istio proxy.
