A full comparison of three service mesh solutions

This repository serves as the central storage for all the codebase and documentation related to Service Mesh / eBPF Product Comparison.

The purpose of this study was to provide a reliable comparison of three available service mesh options to determine the best. We aimed to compare and share our experience on three popular open-source service meshes: Cilium, Linkerd and Istio (Sidecar and Ambient). This comparison covers the following areas:

  • Deployment
  • Configuration
  • Maintenance
  • Performance and Connectivity
  • Operational Impact
  • Compliance and Standards

This exercise was performed using our internal development platform, LWDE (Livewyer Development Environment), to expedite and simplify the environment setup process.
