In this KubeFM video, William Morgan, CEO of Buoyant and creator of Linkerd, announces two significant developments: the upcoming release of Linkerd 2.17 with new features like egress metrics and federated services and the "Project Sustainability" initiative.
This announcement is particularly significant for organizations relying on service mesh technology, as it addresses technical advancement and long-term project viability.
Morgan provides valuable insights into the often-overlooked aspect of open-source sustainability, explaining how commercial backing through Buoyant's enterprise distribution ensures the project's continued development while maintaining its core principle of simplicity in the complex service mesh landscape.
