What is Linkerd and why use this skill?

Linkerd is a lightweight service mesh for Kubernetes. This skill provides standardized patterns for installing Linkerd and configuring security, traffic, and observability policies automatically.

How does this skill help with Kubernetes security?

It facilitates the implementation of automatic mutual TLS (mTLS) for all service-to-service communication and provides templates for fine-grained Server Authorization policies.

Does it support multi-cluster environments?

Yes, it provides patterns for installing multi-cluster extensions, linking clusters, and exporting services across cluster boundaries.

Can I use this for canary deployments?

Yes, the skill includes TrafficSplit templates that allow you to shift traffic between stable and canary versions of your services based on percentage weights.

How do I monitor my services with this skill?

The skill includes commands for the Linkerd Viz extension, allowing you to view live traffic, per-route metrics, and service dependency edges via the CLI or dashboard.

デプロイメントとDevOps

Implements lightweight, security-focused Linkerd service mesh patterns for Kubernetes infrastructure.

概要

This skill provides production-ready patterns for Linkerd, the ultra-lightweight and security-first service mesh for Kubernetes. It simplifies the deployment and management of service mesh features including automatic mTLS for zero-trust networking, traffic splitting for canary releases, and detailed service profiles for per-route metrics and retries. Whether you're setting up a fresh cluster or managing complex multi-cluster environments, this skill guides you through the configuration of traffic policies, observability tools, and reliability patterns with minimal performance overhead.
