      Before releasing Service Mesh Ambient mode GA, we should investigate and provide a clear instruction doc or blog about a safe migration from Sidecar mode to Ambient mode. So users can try their existing mesh from using sidecar proxies to Ambient mode using Ztunnel and Waypoint components.

      This is similar to the upstream discussion in : https://github.com/istio/istio/discussions/53345

      Acceptance criteria:

      • Collect information and existing issue(s) when migrating or upgrading Istio Sidecar mode to Ambient mode.
      • Investigate Istio Sidecar mode , Ambient mode profiles and each feature label configuration.
      • Investigate Istio migration from Sidecar mode namespace to Ambient mode namespace when enrolling a Waypoint Gateway component there.
      • Investigate impacts on existing mesh workload and deployment restart steps. 
      • Address issue(s) or implement helpful migration feature in Sail Operator if needed.
      • Provide a doc about migrating Istio sidecar mode to Ambient mode running on OpenShift.
