Kong Mesh

What Kong Mesh is

Kong Mesh is a paid service mesh for managing service-to-service traffic in hybrid deployments. It uses a sidecar proxy architecture and supports mutual TLS (mTLS), traffic policies and multi-cluster environments. The listed supported platforms are Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift, and the product is accessed through the web. Its hybrid deployment model is relevant to organizations running services across different environments, while mTLS support addresses authenticated and encrypted service connections. Traffic policies provide controls for handling service traffic, and multi-cluster support covers deployments spanning more than one cluster. Pricing is available on request. Kong, the company associated with the product, was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California, USA.
