Istio mesh is not currently available for on-prem solutions. |

After you create your Istio mesh, click here to learn how to deploy a demo to test the cross-cluster mesh.
For demonstration purposes, we will create a cross-provider Istio mesh between an NKS cluster on AWS, and one on Azure. You can use NKS to create an Istio mesh which spans multiple providers, or between clusters on the same provider.
Click Control Plane > Istio Mesh then click Create Istio Mesh.
Update the mesh name, mesh type, and workspace if you wish. Click Submit to continue.
Select the clusters you want to add to the mesh.
Click Submit to create the Istio mesh.
