The upgrade process could involve new binaries as well as other changes like configuration and API schemas. The upgrade process may involve some service downtime. To minimize the service downtime, please ensure your istio control plane components and your application are highly available with multiple replicas.

yaml file directly, e.g.
First, generate the desired istio control plane yaml file, e.g.
```command ```command
$ kubectl apply -f istio.yaml (or istio-auth.yaml) helm template --set global.proxy.image=proxy \
--values install/kubernetes/helm/istio/values-istio.yaml \
install/kubernetes/helm/istio >> install/kubernetes/istio.yaml
```
or
```command
helm template --set global.proxy.image=proxy \
--values install/kubernetes/helm/istio/values-istio-auth.yaml \
install/kubernetes/helm/istio >> install/kubernetes/istio-auth.yaml
``` ```

new version. If there is any issue with the new control plane, you can rollback
the changes either by applying the old version yaml files. ```command
$ kubectl apply -f install/kubernetes/istio.yaml
```
or
```command
$ kubectl apply -f install/kubernetes/istio-auth.yaml
```
The rolling update process will upgrade all deployments and configmaps to the new version. After this process finishes, your Istio control plane should be updated to the new version and the control plane itself should be using the new Envoy v2 proxy. Your existing application should continue to work without any change, using the Envoy v1 proxy and the v1alpha1 route rules. In any case if there is any critical issue with the new control plane, you can simply rollback the changes either by applying the old version yaml files.
