This commit adds support for Istio ambient mode (sidecar-less data plane) to all Pulsar components in the Helm chart, following the design from sn-operator/docs/proposals/istio-ambient-mode-design.md.

Changes:

  • Add dataplaneMode field to values.yaml istio section (defaults to empty for backward compatibility)
  • Update PulsarBroker template to include dataplaneMode in istio config
  • Update PulsarProxy template to include dataplaneMode in istio config
  • Add istio section with dataplaneMode to BookKeeperCluster template
  • Add istio section with dataplaneMode to ZooKeeperCluster template

Benefits:

  • Backward compatible (empty value defaults to sidecar mode via API)
  • Enables ~70-80% resource savings with ambient mode
  • Supports migration mode with permissive mTLS
  • All components (Broker, Proxy, BookKeeper, ZooKeeper) support ambient mode

Usage:
Set istio.dataplaneMode: "ambient" to enable sidecar-less data plane Set istio.dataplaneMode: "sidecar" or leave empty for traditional sidecar mode
