[configuration profile](/docs/setup/kubernetes/additional-setup/config-profiles/)
using basic Kubernetes commands without needing to download or install [Helm](https://github.com/helm/helm).

{{< tip >}}
{{< warning >}}
The demo configuration profile is not suitable for performance evaluation.
It is designed to showcase Istio functionality with high levels of tracing and access logging.
{{< /warning >}}

To install Istio for production use, we recommend using the
[Helm Installation guide](/docs/setup/kubernetes/install/helm/) instead,
which provides many more options for selecting and managing the Istio configuration.
This permits customization of Istio to operator specific requirements.
