Meshery is the cloud native management plane offering lifecycle, configuration, and performance management of Kubernetes, service meshes, and your workloads.

MESHERY IS A CLOUD NATIVE COMPUTING FOUNDATION PROJECT

Meshery runs as a set of containers inside or outside of your Kubernetes clusters.

curl -L https://meshery.io/install | bash -

Interoperate multiple service meshes with service mesh adapters provision, configure, and manage their respective service meshes. Meshery is an implementation of the Service Mesh Interface (SMI).

Assess your cloud native infrastructure configuration against deployment and operational best practices with Meshery's configuration validator. Onboard your workload onto the service mesh with confidence. Check your Kubernetes configuration for anti-patterns and avoid common pitfalls.

Meshery is the cloud native utility for uniformly managing the performance of microservices and the infrastructure that run them. As an implementation of the Service Mesh Performance (SMP), Meshery enables you to measure the value provided by Docker, Kubernetes, or a service mesh in the context of the overhead incurred.

Meshery provides tooling to validate any service mesh that claims to implement and conform to SMI specifications. Working in accordance with the SMI Conformance project, it essentially provides:

✔︎ Defines compliant behavior.
✔︎ Produces compatibility matrix.
✔︎ Ensures provenance of results.
✔︎ Runs a set of conformance tests.
✔︎ Built into the participating service mesh’s release pipeline.
✔︎ Provides Learn Layer5 sample application used for validating test assertions.

You may deploy Meshery internal to your cluster or external to your cluster.
