linkerd-patterns
Lightweight service mesh patterns for Kubernetes with automatic mTLS and zero-trust networking.
- Covers installation, namespace injection, and core resources including ServiceProfile for per-route metrics, TrafficSplit for canary deployments, and Server/ServerAuthorization policies for access control
- Includes templates for mesh setup, traffic splitting, retry configuration with budgets, multi-cluster linking, and HTTPRoute-based advanced routing
- Provides monitoring and debugging commands for live traffic inspection, proxy status checks, and cross-cluster connectivity verification
- Emphasizes automatic mTLS, sensible defaults, and per-route observability without requiring complex configuration
Linkerd Patterns
Production patterns for Linkerd service mesh - the lightweight, security-first service mesh for Kubernetes.
When to Use This Skill
- Setting up a lightweight service mesh
- Implementing automatic mTLS
- Configuring traffic splits for canary deployments
- Setting up service profiles for per-route metrics
- Implementing retries and timeouts
- Multi-cluster service mesh
