## Description

Linkerd, created by Buoyant, adds security, observability, and reliability to any Kubernetes cluster without the complexity of bloat of other service meshes. 100% open source, CNCF graduated, and written in Rust.

Linkerd is fully open source, licensed under Apache v2, and is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation graduated project. Linkerd is developed in the open in the Linkerd GitHub organization.

Linkerd has two basic components: a control plane and a data plane. Once Linkerd’s control plane has been installed on your Kubernetes cluster, you add the data plane to your workloads (called “meshing” or “injecting” your workloads) and voila! Service mesh magic happens.

You can get started with Linkerd in minutes!
