🎈 Welcome to Linkerd2! 👋

Linkerd2 is an ultralight service mesh, designed to make modern applications safe and sane by transparently adding service discovery, load balancing, failure handling, instrumentation, and routing to all inter-service communication.

Linkerd2 (pronouned "linker-DEE-two") acts as a transparent HTTP/gRPC/thrift/tcp/etc proxy, and can be deployed alongside existing applications regardless of what language they're written in. It works with many common protocols and utilizes Kubernetes as a backend for service discovery.

It is separated into two major components: the control plane and the data plane. The control plane interacts with the service discovery backend, orchestrates the data plane and is written in Go. The data plane runs alongside existing applications, provides the proxy that manages traffic itself and is written in Rust.

Currently, Linkerd2 is capable of proxying all TCP traffic, including WebSockets and HTTP tunneling, along with reporting top-line metrics (success rates, latencies, etc) for all HTTP, HTTP/2, and gRPC traffic.

Linkerd is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).
