Linkerd Integrations

Kubernetes (K8s) is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It groups containers that make up an application into logical units for easy management and discovery. Kubernetes builds upon 15 years of experience of running production workloads at Google, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community. Designed on the same principles that allows Google to run billions of containers a week, Kubernetes can scale without increasing your ops team. Whether testing locally or running a global enterprise, Kubernetes flexibility grows with you to deliver your applications consistently and easily no matter how complex your need is. Kubernetes is open source giving you the freedom to take advantage of on-premises, hybrid, or public cloud infrastructure, letting you effortlessly move workloads to where it matters to you.

Telepresence streamlines your local development process, enabling immediate feedback. You can launch your local environment on your laptop, equipped with your preferred tools, while Telepresence seamlessly connects them to the microservices and test databases they rely on. It simplifies and expedites collaborative development, debugging, and testing within Kubernetes environments by establishing a seamless connection between your local machine and shared remote Kubernetes clusters. Why Telepresence: Faster feedback loops: Spend less time building, containerizing, and deploying code. Get immediate feedback on code changes by running your service in the cloud from your local machine. Shift testing left: Create a remote-to-local debugging experience. Catch bugs pre-production without the configuration headache of remote debugging. Deliver better, faster user experience: Get new features and applications into the hands of users faster and more frequently.

The F5 Distributed Cloud Platform delivers improved functionality, advanced security controls, and more simplified operations than native services from cloud providers. A cloud-based platform that is purpose-built to support distributed applications across multi-cloud, on-premises, and edge environments. As applications evolve through microservices and increased dependencies on APIs, new highly distributed architectures are introducing greater complexities, costs, and increased risks. Multiple appliances, software, and connectivity services must be deployed and managed to deliver apps. Traditional CDNs and hub-spoke networks were not designed for immersive or large-scale SaaS apps. Services with different APIs, policies, and observability require investments in automation. Apps deployed across distributed environments are not equally protected. Difficult to align DevOps, NetOps, and SecOps across service provisioning and security using ticket-based workflows.

Troubleshoot performance bottlenecks and errors within your microservices. Correlate root causes across traces, logs, and metrics. Cut your OpenTelemetry traces cost with Aspecto built-in remote sampling. How OTel data is visualized impacts your troubleshooting abilities. Go from a high-level overview to the very last detail with best-in-class visualization. Correlate logs and traces. From logs to their matched traces and back with one click. Never lose context and resolve issues faster. Use filters, free-text search, and groups to search your trace data and quickly pinpoint where in your system the problem is occurring. Cut your costs by sampling only the data you need. Sample traces based on languages, libraries, routes, and errors. Set data privacy rules to hide sensitive fields within trace data, specific routes, or anywhere else. Connect your day-to-day tools with your workflow. Logs, error monitoring, external events API, and more.

Flux is a set of continuous and progressive delivery solutions for Kubernetes that are open and extensible. The latest version of Flux brings many new features, making it more flexible and versatile. Flux is a CNCF Incubating project. Flux and Flagger deploy apps with canaries, feature flags, and A/B rollouts. Flux can also manage any Kubernetes resource. Infrastructure and workload dependency management are built-in. Flux enables application deployment (CD) and (with the help of Flagger) progressive delivery (PD) through automatic reconciliation. Flux can even push back to Git for you with automated container image updates to Git (image scanning and patching). Flux works with your Git providers (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, can even use s3-compatible buckets as a source), all major container registries, and all CI workflow providers. Kustomize, Helm, RBAC, and policy-driven validation (OPA, Kyverno, admission controllers) so it simply falls into place.

Centrally deploy, run, and manage Kubernetes clusters across all of your environments with a comprehensive container orchestration platform that finally delivers on the Kubernetes promise. Optimized for large enterprises, Kublr is designed to provide multi-cluster deployments and observability. We made it easy, so your team can focus on what really matters: innovation and value generation. Enterprise-grade container orchestration might start with Docker and Kubernetes, but Kublr delivers the comprehensive, flexible tools that ensure you deploy enterprise-class Kubernetes clusters from Day One. The platform eases adoption for enterprises new to Kubernetes while providing the flexibility and control mature organizations need. While master self-healing is key, true high availability can only be achieved with additional node self-healing, ensuring worker nodes are as reliable as the cluster.

The simplest way to navigate and operate your microservices. Whether you only have two or thousands of microservices, effx will track and guide you regardless of orchestration system, public cloud, or on-premise environment. Incidents across a fleet of microservices are rarely simple. effx provides context to help you orient around the potential causes of every outage in real-time. You’ve invested in your ability to know when production breaks. We help you proactively prepare for those moments by scoring services on key attributes that ensure they’re ready.

ARMO provides total security for in-house workloads and data. Our patent-pending technology prevents breaches and protects against security overhead regardless of your environment, cloud-native, hybrid, or legacy. ARMO protects every microservice and protects it uniquely. We do this by creating a cryptographic code DNA-based workload identity, analyzing each application’s unique code signature, to deliver an individualized and secure identity to every workload instance. To prevent hacking, we establish and maintain trusted security anchors in the protected software memory throughout the application execution lifecycle. Stealth coding-based technology blocks all attempts at reverse engineering of the protection code and ensures comprehensive protection of secrets and encryption keys while in-use. Our keys are never exposed and thus cannot be stolen.
