To install Istio on EKS with kubectl, we will need to use helm to generate the manifest and use kubectlto apply.

Install Istio Init

cd istio-1.3.3
helm template install/kubernetes/helm/istio-init --namespace istio-system | kubectl apply -f -

Install Istio Demo

kubectl apply -f install/kubernetes/istio-demo.yaml

Output

$ kubectl get pods -n istio-system
