About Layer5

Layer5's cloud native application and infrastructure management software enables engineers to expect more from their infrastructure. We embrace developer-defined infrastructure. We empower developers to change how they write applications, support operators in rethinking how they run modern infrastructure, and enable product owners to regain full-control over their product portfolio.

Projects

Meshery

Meshery is the collaborative cloud native manager that enables the adoption, operation, and management of Kubernetes and its workloads.

MeshMap

MeshMap is an end-to-end management platform, here to help teams understand problems, deploy designs, apply patterns, manage and operate your deployments and services in real-time.

Cloud Native Patterns

Cloud Native Patterns help you get the most out of Kubernetes and every CNCF project. Each pattern can be used as a template and is customizable.

Service Mesh Landscape

The Service Mesh Landscape is a comprehensive collection of prominent service mesh projects and offerings laid out in contrast to one another.

Cloud Native Performance

The Cloud Native Performance is a vendor-neutral specification for capturing details of environment and infrastructure details, cloud native infrastructure and its configuration, service/application details, and bundling of statistical analysis of results.

Image Hub

Image Hub is a demo application which runs on Consul and facilitates exploring WebAssembly modules used as Envoy Filters. Image Hub supports Envoy-based data planes. It is compatible with and can be deployed on Istio and Consul service meshes.

Meshery Operator

Meshery Operator deploys and manages MeshSync.

Learn Layer5

Learn Layer5 is a sample application for learning how cloud native infrastructure works.

Nighthawk

Nighthawk is a Layer 7 (HTTP/HTTPS/HTTP2) performance characterization tool. Nighthawk is Envoy’s load generator and is written in C++. Meshery integrates Nighthawk as one of (currently) three choices of load generator for characterizing and managing the performance of infrastructure and services.

Meshery Catalog

Meshery Catalog As a central hub for sharing cloud native infrastructure designs, Meshery Catalog enables the exchange of the best practices, reusable templates, and Kubernetes-based operational patterns for multi-cluster Kubernetes clusters and distributed applications. Meshery Catalog serves as a marketplace full of curated cloud native infrastructure configurations and operational patterns perfect for DevOps engineers who seek to leverage and contribute to Meshery's large collection of design patterns.
