Case Studies

With Linkerd, we get a lot of capabilities with a lot less complexity. mTLS and free retries are great, but the real benefit we got, was observability. 

We have offloaded the time and effort needed to develop and maintain the in-house mTLS solution, saving valuable engineering hours.

It was a huge undertaking — especially considering our tight deadline of five months! To our surprise, the mTLS aspect was fairly easy

As soon as we started experimenting with Linkerd in our non-production clusters, network faults caused by the underpinning Azure instabilities dropped significantly

We started with Linkerd and it turned out to be so easy to get started that we gave up on evaluating the other two — we loved it from the get-go

Because of Linkerd, we’ve been able to easily increase the platform capacity by over 10x, reduce operating costs, and better hit our availability targets

We desperately needed insights into what was happening in the cluster and the new microservices architecture. Without the observability that Linkerd gave us

The Linkerd service mesh is such an integral part of our environment that I can’t imagine how we’d operate without it. With a small team, we are managing about 2,000 sidecar

We rely on Linkerd to help keep customer PPI confidential. If you want TLS, Linkerd takes care of it within the cluster automatically

We have been very happy with the results of installing Linkerd. It alleviates a lot of headaches and takes a minimal amount of management time

With the real-time nature of our platform, low latency is a critical factor for us. Linkerd helps our team do rapid triage
