Are there any good samples on deploying istio to a Azure Kubernetes cluster? The one I found was for GKE.

Maybe @gorgeous-egg-16927 @breezy-hamburger-69619 can help

Got it, so basically not using istioctl to manage kubernetes, just to generate the manifests needed. Sounds doable. A lot of new things for me, but a great learning experience :)

Yep, that’s my suggestion. You could also shell out to

istioctl

from Pulumi to generate the manifests as part of an update if that process is working out for you. A little clunky, but I think the advantages of managing resource updates with Pulumi are worth it. (That’s very similar to the way we integrate with Helm)

For reference, here is the Helm wrapper: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/blob/master/sdk/dotnet/Helm/ChartBase.cs#L95-L122

Thanks, I’ll see what I end up with.
