Traffic Dialling
summary
Intuit runs a centralized traffic-dialing control plane that programs Istio VirtualServices into client clusters so each client can get per-client weighted rollouts, rollbacks and arbitrary routing patterns without changing client code. It handles a mesh at reported scale — ~250K clusters, ~7,000 namespaces, ~77K nodes and ~9,000 services — via a self-service UI that creates and updates virtual services and a global mapping of client→service dependencies; demo shows the mechanism works end-to-end.
