Query Explanation

The rule computes the total request rate across all services in the mesh by summing the per‑second rate of istio_requests_total (where the metric is reported by the destination) over the last 5 minutes, and triggers when this summed rate falls below 100 requests per second, indicating an unusually low overall traffic volume.
