From what I've read and heard, Istio's complexity makes the bite barely worth the chew.
Regarding Cilium, there's a backup plan as soon as there's a license change, which would be a herald of things to come:

- rjzzleep 3y agoIstio is really quite interesting of a project it promises everything, has a lot of frequent new engineering solutions, and then people have to hire consultants to make them be able to do a fraction of that. It’s the SAP of the kubernetes world.
- dirteater_ 3y agoIf you try to use every single feature of Istio, sure. If you just need encryption it's not that bad. And it looks to be getting better (no more sidecars, eventually).
- Yasuraka 3y agoIf you just want automatic mTLS, LinkerD is an option. Ultimately I hope to go with Cilium and I hope the recent news around OpenTofu are enough to dissuade Cisco from trying anything funny
