Incremental Istio Deployment. (Preview) You can now adopt Istio incrementally, more easily than before, by installing only the components you want (e.g, Pilot+Ingress only as the minimal Istio install). Refer to the istioctl CLI tool for generating a information on customized Istio deployments.
Automatic Proxy Injection. We leverage Kubernetes 1.9’s new mutating webhook feature to provide automatic pod-level proxy injection. Automatic injection requires Kubernetes 1.9 or beyond and therefore doesn’t work on older versions. The alpha initializer mechanism is no longer supported. Learn more
Revised Traffic Rules. Based on user feedback, we have made significant changes to Istio’s traffic management (routing rules, destination rules, etc.). We would love your continuing feedback while we polish this in the coming weeks.
