Istio is an open, platform-independent service mesh designed to manage communications between microservices and applications. Without requiring changes to the underlying services, Istio provides automated baseline traffic resilience, service metrics collection, distributed tracing, traffic encryption, protocol upgrades, and advanced routing functionality for all service-to-service communication. The port deploys the istioctl command line utility, used to create, list, modify, and delete configuration resources in a deployed Istio system.
