The best product available in the market for service mesh and cross cluster communication

|Linkerd
The ease of setting up and simplicity of the tech stack. It's feature to enable service mirroring in order to provide cross cluster service communication and building the service mesh around the cluster components is a deal breaker.

Simple, Fast, Solid

|Linkerd
In the majority of cases, Linkerd can be used with very minimal configuration and provide benefits to a Kubernetes hosted application stack. Some of the best features include elements such as highly effective weighted load-balancing for HTTP and GRPC traffic, and the ability to use security policies to limit which pods can talk to other pods in order to lock down the internals of your cluster. The proxies are very low overhead, especially if you're comparing to an envoy/istio based environment, and having a barely-there footprint means there little to no cost to deploying into most clusters.

Linkers review

|Linkerd
I like how easy it is to install and especially that it is a very light weight service mesh. Compared to other solutions in the industry , it is the most lightweight and have one of the best documentation available
