Solo CEO Idit Levine named DevOps Executive of the Year

We’re thrilled to announce that Solo.io Founder and CEO Idit Levine has been named DevOps Executive of the Year in the DevOps Dozen 2022 Awards. This award – one of twelve community awards – celebrates her outstanding contributions to the DevOps community at the C-suite level.

“Idit Levine is the embodiment of the DevOps mindset,” says Alan Shimel, Techstrong Group Founder and CEO. “She is a brilliant engineer who has built an amazing team and company. She is so deserving of this award.”

Levine founded Solo to help organizations address the challenges that come with using microservices, making the company an early innovator in the service mesh market.

For eight years, the DevOps Dozen Awards have recognized important people and products in the DevOps community. The Executive of the Year Award was open to the public for nominations, then narrowed down to finalists for public voting.

Solo was also a finalist in two tools and services categories: Best Kubernetes Platform/Service (Gloo Platform) and Most Innovative DevOps Open Source Project (Istio Ambient Mesh).

Solo.io delivers a service mesh and API platform for Kubernetes, zero trust, and microservices. The three components of the Gloo Platform – Gloo Gateway, Gloo Mesh, and Gloo Network – enable enterprise companies to rapidly adopt microservice applications as part of their cloud journey and digital transformation.
