🎈 Welcome to Conduit! 👋

Conduit is an ultralight service mesh for Kubernetes from the makers of Linkerd. It features a native proxy, written in Rust, that boasts the performance of C without all the heartbleed.

Conduit is experimental. It is capable of proxying all TCP traffic, and reporting top-line metrics (success rates, latencies, etc) for all HTTP, HTTP/2, and gRPC traffic. It currently does not work with websockets or with HTTP tunneling--see the --skip-outbound-ports flag for how to exclude these types of traffic.

Follow our progress towards production-readiness here and on Twitter.
