In this playground repo we attempt to create three clusters within australia-southeast1 region one for each zone. We then will build out service mesh in each cluster which is seeded using same CA generated by the pki script. Once the cluster is stood up and istio is bootstrapped we will then deploy the microservices-demo app to these clusters. The end goal will be to leverage a combination of global load balancing on google and Traffic director to route traffic to appropriate service.
