Istio Cookbook: Kiali Recipe
summary
Kiali demonstrates concrete Istio operations on a travel-demo app: automatic namespace sidecar injection via namespace annotation, generating a Gateway + VirtualService + DestinationRule to expose control.example, and building multi-namespace graphs that confirm mutual TLS enforced. It performs a 50/25/25 split for canary testing (including MySQL TCP shifting), injects faults with a 5s average delay peaking to 10s to observe system impact, and generates authorization policies that successfully deny a newly deployed workload.
