Today we’re happy to announce the release of Linkerd 2.15, which adds support for workloads outside of Kubernetes. This new “mesh expansion” feature allows Linkerd users for the first time to bring applications running on VMs, physical machines, and other non-Kubernetes locations into the mesh, delivering Linkerd’s uniform layer of secure, reliable, and observable connectivity across both Kubernetes and non-Kubernetes workload alike.
How an hostile act. Hidden behind feature promotion.
