Service mesh workloads queries

MetricPromQL query
Request rate for a given servicerate(istio_requests_total{destination_app="<service_ID>"}[5m])
Request rate between source and destination workloadrate(istio_requests_total{source_workload="<source_workload>", destination_workload="<workload_ID>"}[5m])
Successful request rate to a destination workloadrate(istio_requests_total{response_code=~"[2-3].*", destination_workload="<workload_ID>"}[5m])
Rate of failing requests to a destination workloadrate(istio_requests_total{response_code=~"[4-5].*", destination_workload="<workload_ID>"}[5m])
Number of new requests within a certain timeframesum(increase(istio_requests_total{}[5m])) by (workload_id, destination_workload_id)
Number of total requests for a source workloadsum(istio_requests_total{source_workload="<souce_workload>"}) by (workload_id,destination_workload_id, response_code)
