Installing Istio
There are multiple methods to deploy Istio. The most common method today is to use either istioctl
or the Istio operator, but there are additional options depending on your organization. You may elect to use one of the alternative installation methods of creating manifests via istoctl or the Helm chart (which as of the time of writing is considered alpha).
A brief list of advantages and disadvantages for each method is detailed in Table 12.1: Istio deployment methods.
