Try out Istio Ambient mode
Ambient is a new data-plane model that Istio has just announced support for. In this post, we will try to install Istio’s ambient model and use the bookinfo demo to experience the L4 and L7 capabilities offered by ambient.
Note: L4 refers to the four layers of the OSI standard network model, i.e., TCP layer processing. L7 refers to layer seven of the OSI standard network model, which is the application layer processing, generally referred to as HTTP protocol processing.
