Overview
- Universal and Kubernetes-native: Platform-agnostic, can run and operate anywhere.
- Standalone and multi-zone: Supports multiple clouds, regions, and Kubernetes clusters with native DNS service discovery and ingress capability.
- Multi-mesh: Supports multiple individual meshes with one control plane, lowering the operational costs of supporting the entire organization.
- Envoy-based: Powered by Envoy sidecar proxies, without exposing the complexity of Envoy itself.
- Horizontally scalable
Bundling as the data plane, Kuma can instrument any L4/L7 traffic to secure, observe, route and enhance connectivity between any services or databases. It can be used natively in Kubernetes via CRDs or via a RESTful API across other environments.
