Ambient Estimator Tool

A free tool designed to assess your Istio environment to estimate potential cost savings from migrating from sidecars to a sidecarless mesh architecture.

The detailed version of the estimator tool will be available shortly after KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU 2025. Submit your details to be notified as soon as the the tool is published.

Why Ambient?

Ambient streamlines service mesh deployment by eliminating the need for sidecar proxies, simplifying operations and drastically reducing resource consumption.

How to use the estimator tool:

  • Gather your cluster resource usage data to a cluster configuration file by running the provided command.
  • Upload the cluster configuration file to the estimator.
  • The tool will provide a cost savings estimate based on potential reduction in resource usage from moving from sidecars to sidecarless.
