Istio + ambassador: conflict envoy

[lluunn]

It's similar to #160, but a little different

Error is the same: unable to bind domain socket with id=0 (see --base-id option)

However

• I am using manual inject for istio instead of auto inject
• I want both functionality of istio and ambassador:
  • ambassador for dynamic routing
  • want the ambassador service to be part of the istio service mesh so I can collect telemetry metrics like this. So IIUC, I need the istio injection for ambassador deployment.

Any suggestion?
We are using quay.io/datawire/ambassador:0.30.1.

We don't support injecting the istio sidecar. If you want to collect telemetry, Ambassador exposes metrics (see https://www.getambassador.io/reference/statistics). I'd be interested in your use case where you want Istio style metrics from Ambassador, since in general the edge metrics that Ambassador gives you are probably more applicable. But I'm sure I'm missing something :).

I see. I didn't know about the Ambassador metrics, I will take a look first.
Thanks!

Closing for now.
