  • Evaluating 2 Popular Service Meshes
    3 projects | dev.to | 20 Oct 2024
    The decision to add a Service Mesh to an application comes down to how your application communicates between itself. If for instance your design is heavily asynchronous and relies on events and messages, then a service mesh isn't going to make a lot of sense. If however, you've built an application that is heavily reliant on APIs between itself, then a service mesh is a great piece of technology that can make this communication simpler, safer, more consistent, and observable. I want to explore to very popular implementations in the Kubernetes ecosystem which are Istio and Linkerd.

    The open source projects Fastly uses and the foundations we partner with are vital to Fastly’s mission and success. Here's an unscientific list of projects and organizations supported by the Linux Foundation that we use and love include: The Linux Kernel, Kubernetes, containerd, eBPF, Falco, OpenAPI Initiative, ESLint, Express, Fastify, Lodash, Mocha, Node.js, Prometheus, Jenkins, OpenTelemetry, Envoy, etcd, Helm, osquery, Harbor, sigstore, cert-manager, Cilium, Fluentd, Keycloak, Open Policy Agent, Coalition for Content Provenance and Authority (C2PA), Flux, gRPC, Strimzi, Thanos, Linkerd, Let’s Encrypt, WebAssembly. And the list goes on!
  • eBPF, sidecars, and the future of the service mesh
    8 projects | dev.to | 7 Jun 2024
    William: My first pick would be Linkerd. It's a must-have for any Kubernetes cluster. I then lean towards tools that complement Linkerd, like Argo and cert-manager. You're off to a solid start with these three.

  • Linkerd no longer shipping open source, stable releases

    Looks like CNCF waved them through Graduation anyway, let's look at policies from July 28, 2021 when they were deemed "Graduated"

    All maintainers of the LinkerD project had @boyant.io email addresses. [0] They do list 4 other members of a "Steering Committee", but LinkerD's GOVERNANCE.md gives all of the power to maintainers: [1]

    > Ideally, all project decisions are resolved by maintainer consensus. If this is not possible, maintainers may call a vote. The voting process is a simple majority in which each maintainer receives one vote.

    And CNCF Graduation policy says a project must "Have committers from at least two organizations" [2]. So it appears that the CNCF accepted the "Steering Committee" as an acceptable 2nd committer, even though the Governance policy still gave the maintainers all of the power.

    I would like to know if the Steering Committee voted to remove stable releases from an un-biased position acting in the best interest of the project, or if they were simply ignored or not even advised on the decision.

    I'm all for Boyant doing what they need to do to make money and survive as a Company. But at that point my opinion is that they should withdraw the project from the CNCF and stop pretending like the foundation has any influence on the project's governance.
