Explore the latest features of Linkerd 2.8 in this webinar focusing on multi-cluster Kubernetes support. Discover how Linkerd now enables transparent and secure cross-cluster communication for Kubernetes services, regardless of network topology. Learn about key use cases for multi-cluster setups, including failover, inverted multi-tenancy, and improved developer productivity. Understand Linkerd's service mirroring approach, which maximizes existing Kubernetes functionality while minimizing additional complexity. Gain insights into Linkerd's role as a security plane for cloud-native infrastructure, providing automatic mTLS encryption for both in-cluster and cross-cluster communication. Presented by Linkerd creator Oliver Gould, this session covers the project's history, architecture, benchmarking, load balancing, reliability features, and more. Dive into topics such as transparent TLS, traffic splitting, service mesh interface, and zero-trust multi-cluster implementations. Includes a live demo and Q&A session addressing control plane, virtual Kubernetes, Cloud Native Con, and comparisons with other technologies like Envoy.
