How do I monitor my services with this skill?

The skill provides patterns for Linkerd Viz, enabling you to view golden metrics (success rate, latency, throughput) and tap live traffic for real-time debugging.

Can I use this for canary deployments?

Yes, the skill includes patterns for using TrafficSplit resources to manage weighted traffic distribution between stable and canary versions of your services.

What makes Linkerd different from other service meshes?

Linkerd is designed for operational simplicity and is significantly lighter than alternatives like Istio, focusing on security and performance with minimal configuration.

How does this skill help with security?

It provides templates for automatic mutual TLS (mTLS), server-side authorization policies, and zero-trust networking configurations to secure internal service-to-service communication.

Does this support multi-cluster environments?

Yes, it includes guidance for installing multi-cluster extensions, linking disparate clusters, and exporting services across different Kubernetes environments.
