#### 1. Install Istio on a K8s cluster.

This guidance uses [Istio](https://istio.io) service mesh implememtation to control traffic routing between model versions. The instruction on installing Istio is available [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/servicemesh-istio-install?pivots=client-operating-system-linux).
15

Before continuing with this guide, you will need:
12
16
13
-
Having the Istio installed, figure out the Istio gateway endpoint on your K8s cluster:
17
+
* An [Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/kubernetes-service) cluster
18
+
* This does **not** have to be the same cluster as the example in [Getting Started: Deploy the model to Azure Kubernetes Service](/docs/getting_started.md#deploy-the-model-to-azure-kubernetes-service)
19
+
* The cluster does not have to be connected to Azure Machine Learning.
20
+
* If you want to deploy a new cluster, see [Quickstart: Deploy an Azure Kubernetes Service cluster using the Azure CLI](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/kubernetes-walkthrough)
21
+
* An Azure Container Registry instance that is authenticated with your Azure Kubernetes Service cluster.
22
+
* The chart you will deploy is assuming you are authenticated using a service principal.
23
+
* See [Authenticate with Azure Container Registry from Azure Kubernetes Service](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/cluster-container-registry-integration#configure-acr-integration-for-existing-aks-clusters) for an authentication guide.
24
+
* In Azure DevOps, a service connection to your Kubernetes cluster.
25
+
* If you do not currently have a namespace, create one named 'abtesting'.

You'll be using the [Istio](https://istio.io) service mesh implementation to control traffic routing between model versions. Follow the instructions at [Install and use Istio in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/aks/servicemesh-istio-install?pivots=client-operating-system-linux).
30
+
31
+
After Istio is installed, figure out the Istio gateway endpoint on your K8s cluster:
14
32
15
33
```bash
16
34
GATEWAY_IP=$(kubectl get svc istio-ingressgateway -n istio-system -o jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].ip}')
17
35
```
18
36
19
37
You don't need to create any Istio resources (e.g. Gateway or VirtualService) at this point. It will be handled by the AzDo pipeline that builds and deploys a scoring image.

| K8S_AB_SERVICE_CONNECTION | mlops-aks | Name of the service connection to your Kubernetes cluster|
46

| K8S_AB_NAMESPACE | abtesting | Kubernetes namespace for model deployment |

**Note:** The pipeline performs the rollout without any pausing. You may want to configure [Approvals and Checks](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/approvals?view=azure-devops&tabs=check-pass) for the stages on your environment for better experience of the model testing. The environment ***abtestenv*** will be added automatically to your AzDo project after the first pipeline run.
