Enterprise power without enterprise complexity. Linkerd adds security, observability, and reliability to any Kubernetes cluster. 100% open source, CNCF graduated, and written in Rust. Instantly add latency-aware load balancing, request retries, timeouts, and blue-green deploys to keep your applications resilient. Incredibly small and blazing fast Linkerd2-proxy micro-proxy written in Rust for security and performance. Self-contained control plane, incrementally deployable data plane, and lots and lots of diagnostics and debugging tools. Transparently add mutual TLS to any on-cluster TCP communication with no configuration. Designed by engineers, for engineers.
