:balloon: Welcome to Conduit! :wave:
Conduit is an ultralight service mesh for Kubernetes. It features a minimalist
control plane written in Go, and a native proxy data plane written in
[Rust][rust] that boasts the performance of C without the heartbleed.
Conduit is **alpha**. 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.
