Hi. Not OP, but thanks for your great answers ! Does Kong compare more to Istio then (which as far as I understand is a control layer over Envoy), but less focused on K8s ?

Kong would be more comparably to Istio, yes and we're big fans of it! We provide additional control capabilities on top of what Istio provides and can integrate with Istio for folks using it. Basically, if you're using Istio for a mesh, and you want to have that mesh also work with all your other non-mesh services, we help make that happen. You can also use Kong as an ingress controller for K8s or inject it as a sidecar proxy in K8s, which would give you very similar capabilities to using Envoy + Istio.
