Networking

  • Benchmarking Linkerd and Istio
    The team around Buoyant repeated their performance experiments with the latest versions of Linkerd and Istio projects. The results show that Linkerd not only remains dramatically faster than Istio but now also consumes an order of magnitude less data plane memory and CPU while doing so. What a success!

CI/CD
