configuration information, you can access the

standard Istio metric configuration. It also makes Kubernetes API calls to

obtain additional details about your services. For the best experience using

Kiali, use the metadata labels <code>app</code> and <code>version</code> on your application

components. As a template, the Bookinfo sample application follows this
