About Buoyant
Buoyant is a pioneering brand in the world of service mesh technology. If you're a software engineer working with backend systems, you've likely come across the term service mesh in recent years. Buoyant's Linkerd, the very first service mesh project, has been instrumental in popularizing this technology.
A service mesh is a collection of userspace proxies and management processes that enhance the communication between services in a seamless and secure manner. This innovative solution intercepts calls between services, implementing a set of features tailored to service-to-service traffic. Buoyant offers a range of products and services to support service mesh implementation, including Linkerd Cloud Managed, Linkerd support, and FIPS-ready Linkerd.
The brand is committed to simplicity and security, ensuring that its service mesh is the simplest and most secure option in the market. Buoyant also provides comprehensive support for Linkerd through its Linkerd forum, expert guidance, case studies, and even hands-on training through the Service Mesh Academy. With Buoyant, engineers can navigate the complexities of service mesh technology with confidence and efficiency
