or greater. See <a href="https://archive.istio.io/v0.4/docs/setup/kubernetes/sidecar-injection">https://archive.istio.io/v0.4/docs/setup/kubernetes/sidecar-injection</a> for Istio versions 0.4.0 or older.</p><p><em>NOTE</em>: In previous releases, the Kubernetes initializer feature was used for automatic proxy injection. This was an Alpha feature, subject to change/removal, and not enabled by default in Kubernetes. Starting in Kubernetes 1.9 it was replaced by a beta feature called <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/admission-controllers/#mutatingadmissionwebhook-beta-in-19">mutating webhooks</a>, which is now enabled by default in Kubernetes 1.9 and beyond. Starting in Istio 0.5.0 the automatic proxy injection uses mutating webhooks, and support for injection by initializer has been removed. Users who cannot uprade to Kubernetes 1.9 should use manual injection.</p><h1 id="pod-spec-requirements">Pod Spec Requirements</h1><p>In order to be a part of the service mesh, each pod in the Kubernetes cluster must satisfy the following requirements:</p><ol><li><p><em><strong>Service association</strong>:</em> The pod must belong to a <em>single</em> <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/">Kubernetes Service</a> (pods that belong to multiple services are not supported as of now).</p></li><li><p><em><strong>Named ports</strong>:</em> Service ports must be named. The port names must be of the form <code class="highlighter-rouge">&lt;protocol&gt;[-&lt;suffix&gt;]</code> with <em>http</em>, <em>http2</em>, <em>grpc</em>, <em>mongo</em>, or <em>redis</em> as the <code class="highlighter-rouge">&lt;protocol&gt;</code> in order to take advantage of Istios routing features. For example, <code class="highlighter-rouge">name: http2-foo</code> or <code class="highlighter-rouge">name: http</code> are valid port names, but <code class="highlighter-rouge">name: http2foo</code> is not. If the port name does not begin with a recognized prefix or if the port is unnamed, traffic on the port will be treated as plain TCP traffic (unless the port explicitly uses <code class="highlighter-rouge">Protocol: UDP</code> to signify a UDP port).</p></li><li><p><em><strong>Deployments with app label</strong>:</em> It is recommended that Pods deployed using the Kubernetes <code class="highlighter-rouge">Deployment</code> have an explicit <code class="highlighter-rouge">app</code> label in the Deployment specification. Each deployment specification should have a distinct <code class="highlighter-rouge">app</code> label with a value indicating something meaningful. The <code class="highlighter-rouge">app</code> label is used to add contextual information in distributed tracing.</p></li><li><p><em><strong>Sidecar in every pod in mesh</strong>:</em> Finally, each pod in the mesh must be running an Istio compatible sidecar. The following sections describe two ways of injecting the Istio sidecar into a pod: manually using <code class="highlighter-rouge">istioctl</code> CLI tool or automatically using the Istio Initializer. Note that the sidecar is not involved in traffic between containers in the same pod.</p></li></ol><h1 id="injection">Injection</h1><p>Manual injection modifies the controller configuration, e.g. deployment. It does this by modifying the pod template spec such that <em>all</em> pods for that deployment are created with the injected sidecar. Adding/Updating/Removing the sidecar requires modifying the entire deployment.</p><p>Automatic injection injects at pod creation time. The controller resource is unmodified. Sidecars can be updated selectively by manually deleting a pods or systematically with a deployment rolling update.</p><p>Manual and automatic injection use the same templated configuration. Automatic injection loads the configuration from the <code class="highlighter-rouge">istio-inject</code> ConfigMap in the <code class="highlighter-rouge">istio-system</code> namespace. Manual injection can load from a local file or from the ConfigMap.</p><p>Two variants of the injection configuration are provided with the default install: <code class="highlighter-rouge">istio-sidecar-injector-configmap-release.yaml</code> and <code class="highlighter-rouge">istio-sidecar-injector-configmap-debug.yaml</code>. The injection configmap includes the default injection policy and sidecar injection template. The debug version includes debug proxy images and additional logging and core dump functionality using for debugging the sidecar proxy.</p><h2 id="manual-sidecar-injection">Manual sidecar injection</h2><p>Use the built-in defaults template and dynamically fetch the mesh configuration from the <code class="highlighter-rouge">istio</code> ConfigMap.
