summary
Linkerd is a CNCF service mesh with a Go control plane (~200 MB control plane) and a tiny data plane in Rust, claiming low latency at scale; benchmarks (Kinvolk) show it’s much faster than Istio but slower than no mesh. Version 2.6 ships telemetry, traffic shifting, proxy auto-injection and mutual TLS on by default; 2.7 targets TCP mTLS and cert rotation. Demo shows CLI injection into an emoji-vote app, automatic per-pod proxies, live success-rate metrics (web at ~96%) and distributed-tracing support.
