Linkerd Day

The Linkerd maintainers are excited to host Linkerd Day, a conference for the world’s lightest, fastest service mesh. We’ll showcase real-life case studies, in-depth technical talks, roadmap discussion and more. Join us for a day filled with technical content, networking, and learning.

Linkerd was the project that coined the “service mesh” term and the first service mesh to achieve graduated status in the CNCF. Today, Linkerd powers the production infrastructure of organizations around the world. Linkerd’s focus on simplicity and performance makes it unique in the service mesh space, and its community of enthusiastic adopters and contributors continues taking the project to new heights.
