Zero-Cost Linkerd at Adidas: Impossible Is Nothing

In their KubeCon talk, Daniel Baeyens and Miguel Allende discuss how Adidas adopted Linkerd. Adopting any open-source project comes with a cost – but that doesn’t mean that a vendor offering is the best way to reduce that cost! It’s definitely possible to run pure open-source projects while keeping a small operational footprint, even when you also contribute upstream to help the community. In this talk, Adidas engineers Daniel Baeyens and Miguel Allende, will share how their team of just five people integrated Linkerd into their stack within a timeframe.
