## Celebrating Istio’s 4th birthday
|
||||
|
||||
Four years ago today, the Istio project was born to the open source world. To celebrate this anniversary,
|
||||
we are hosting a week-long birthday celebration that focuses on contributions to the Istio project that
|
||||
stem from using Istio in production. Read on to learn how to participate in this celebration and enter a
|
||||
chance to win some Istio swag.

### A year of important developments for Istio
|
||||
|
||||
Over the last 12 months, the Istio project has been very focused on the [day-0
|
||||
& day-1](https://dzone.com/articles/defining-day-2-operations) experience for
|
||||
users by actively listening to our users through UX surveys and GitHub issues.
|
||||
|
||||
- We [simplified the control plane architecture](/blog/2020/istiod/) and
|
||||
made Istio easier to install, configure and upgrade.
|
||||
- We provided clarity and process to our feature status and promotion of features and APIs.
|
||||
- We simplified the debugging experience with various istioctl commands.
|
||||
- We expanded the mesh to services running in [VMs](/news/releases/1.9.x/announcing-1.9/#virtual-machine-integration-beta)
|
||||
and [multiple clusters](/docs/setup/install/multicluster/).
|
||||
- We made [`StatefulSet` easier](/blog/2021/statefulsets-made-easier/) to use in Istio 1.10 with zero-configuration.
|
||||
- We made various performance improvements to the Istio control plane and data plane via [discovery selectors](/blog/2021/discovery-selectors/), sidecar resources etc.
|
||||
- We [introduced WebAssembly](/blog/2021/wasm-progress/) as our extensibility platform which has helped users tailor Istio to their needs.
|
||||
- We beefed up our CVE management and release processes to meet enterprise needs.
|
||||
|
||||
[Read more](/blog/2020/tradewinds-2020/) about improvements to
|
||||
Istio in 2020 that made this technology easier to use.
|
||||
|
||||
In February 2021, we celebrated the first IstioCon! This community-led event was an opportunity
|
||||
for users and developers to share [many examples](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7wB27eZmdffS-g_xh7X-b0echc_XZMKV)
|
||||
of how they use Istio in production and lessons
|
||||
learned from it. IstioCon was a great opportunity to feature more than 25 end-user companies,
|
||||
like Salesforce, T-Mobile, and Airbnb, among others, to feature maintainers from across the Istio
|
||||
ecosystem, and to share the [Istio project roadmap](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmjTeN-jtdY).
|
||||
|
||||
This inaugural community conference was a major success, with more than 4,000 registrants from 80
|
||||
countries participating. The program was conducted during US and Asia time zones,
|
||||
and in English and Chinese languages to accommodate big user communities in various continents.
|
||||

### How to participate in Istio’s 4th Birthday celebration
|
||||
|
||||
Contributions are key to the long life of an open source project. This is why, on its 4th birthday,
|
||||
we want to hear about your contributions to the Istio project. To participate in this campaign,
|
||||
share on Twitter a contribution you made to the project and why it matters, using the hashtag #IstioTurns4
|
||||
and #IstioBirthday. You can submit posts from Monday, May 24th at 9 am Pacific, until
|
||||
Friday, May 28th, at 12 pm Pacific, to enter a chance to win some Istio swag.
|
||||
|
||||
The other way of participating in this campaign is by joining the Istio community meetup, which
|
||||
will take place on Thursday, May 27th at 10 am Pacific. At this event, we will have Pratima Nambiar
|
||||
discuss contributions that have stemmed from using Istio in production at Salesforce. Join the event,
|
||||
and ask a question or make a comment on the demo, and enter a chance to win some Istio swag.
