Platform Engineering with Meshery's Extension Points

Meshery includes both REST APIs and GraphQL APIs, pluggable adapters via gRPCs, hot-loadable ReactJS and hot-loadable Golang binaries. The great number of extension points in Meshery make it ideal as the foundation of your internal developer platform.

Visually and collaboratively manage your infrastructure

Meshery uses context-aware relationships to define how and when components interrelate with one another. Meshery supports a variety of relationships between components. These relationships are categorized into two types: semantic and non-semantic.

Manage the performance of your infrastructure and its workloads

Use performance profiles to track the historical performance of your workloads.

Track your application performance from version to version.

Understand behavioral differences between cloud native network functions.

Compare performance across infrastructure deployments.

The Meshery Extension transforms Docker Desktop into a powerful load generation utility, conveniently enabling me to deploy and configure any cloud native application with a click of the button and invoke and control load-based performance tests from my desktop.

The precision by which performance measurements are generated and analyzed is a pinnacle focus of Nighthawk. Mesh performance characterization should be distilled from a set of value measurements, and that is where MeshMark compliments to create the ultimate comprehensive efficiency calculation.

Meshery is the perfect tool for ensuring that your cloud native applications are optimally configured and performing well; it also gives you a fantastic visual insight into what can be a large amount of textual configuration.

While speed is one of Linkerd's core competitive advantages, Linkerd provides much more than just an ultrafast data plane. We are pleased to support MeshMark's establishment of a higher order set of functional considerations that incorporate value into the performance equation.

Performance measurement data rarely provides a clear and simple picture of how well our applications are performing from a business point of view, which are so often the key efficiency indicators that we really need.

Many cloud native adopters have been put off from using service mesh due to the extra resource consumption and complexity that it can involve. We welcome MeshMark as an objective measure of that overhead, to help drive efficiency and make it easier for users to compare service mesh options.

❝

Are my resources utilized as best as possible? Why am I not getting the SLO met with 4 resources when I only needed 1 resource without the service mesh? How can I improve my 99.9% latencies or can I map my service policy to utilization? MeshMark will model and provide an index in answer to such questions.
