Look Ma, no sidecars!
The sidecar model of delivering service mesh to applications in a cluster has drawbacks that limited adoption at scale and performance; a new model introduced in the ambient mode of Istio aims at reducing complexity and overhead and delivering secure application networking at both L4 and L7 with zero changes needed at the pod level.
Will deploy and demo Ambient Mesh on AKS with a workshop that can also be done at your own pace, based on our platform academy.solo.io
