Elevating Cloud-Native Connectivity: Istio Graduates to New Heights

Thanks for reading Glooy News! Graduations are happening everywhere this time of the year, and we can’t forget to celebrate CNCF graduates, too. We’re excited to share that Istio is graduating at the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF)! As the fastest ever project to move from incubation to graduation, Solo is thrilled to celebrate this milestone along with Istio’s contributors and community.

Istio’s CNCF graduation marks a significant turning point in the project’s journey: recognition of Istio’s maturity, stability, and widespread adoption within the cloud-native community. With its innovative approach to managing service-to-service communication, Istio has proven its value in real-world deployments and garnered a diverse and engaged user base from its first features all the way to new innovations such as ambient mesh.
