workload. Coming in at 25% smaller, the sidecar image can be pulled faster improving pod

reduction - across many pods, this quickly adds up to cost savings.
### Support for all CNIs in ambient mode
Our new [ambient mode](/blog/2022/introducing-ambient-mesh/) now works across all Kubernetes platforms and CNI implementations. Ambient mode has been tested with GKE, AKS, and EKS and all the CNI implementations they offer, 3rd-party CNIs like Calico and Cilium, and platforms like OpenShift, all with solid results. The engineering challenges behind this fix were described in [a recent blog post](/blog/2024/inpod-traffic-redirection-ambient/).
Ambient mode is targeted to move to Beta in the upcoming Istio 1.22.
