Istio Operator API

The Istio Operator API (istio.operator.v1alpha1) defines the IstioOperator custom resource used to install, configure, and upgrade Istio on Kubernetes clusters. It provides a declarative interface for selecting Istio profiles, enabling or disabling components such as ingress and egress gateways, and customizing the control plane configuration without editing raw Helm values.
