Summary
Recently, Aeraki Mesh, an open source service mesh project of Tencent Cloud, officially entered the CNCF cloud native panorama, under the Service Mesh category. CNCF Landscape helps users understand what specific software and product options are available in each link of the cloud native practice process. Aeraki Mesh has entered CNCF Landscape, which means that Aeraki Mesh has officially become a CNCF-approved part of the best practices for building cloud native. .

What is CNCF Cloud Native Panorama?
Cloud Native Computing Foundation, Cloud Native Computing Foundation (hereinafter referred to as CNCF) is an open source software foundation, which is committed to the popularization and sustainable development of cloud native (Cloud Native) technology. Cloud-native technologies help businesses and organizations build and run agile, scalable applications in modern, dynamic environments such as public, private, and hybrid clouds through a range of software, specifications, and standards.
CNCF released the cloud native panorama (CNCF Landscape), which aims to help enterprises and developers quickly understand the overall picture of the cloud native system and help users choose appropriate software and tools for cloud native practice. attention and attention.
What problem does Aeraki Mesh solve in cloud native?
Aeraki Mesh is an open source project of Tencent Cloud in the field of service mesh. It solves the pain point that the current service mesh project only handles the HTTP/gRPC protocol and does not support other open source and private protocols.
Aeraki Mesh can help you manage any Layer 7 protocol in a service mesh. Currently, open source protocols such as Dubbo, Thrit, Redis, Kafka, ZooKeeper are supported. You can also use the MetaProtocol protocol extension framework provided by Aeraki Mesh to manage the seven-layer traffic of the private protocol.

Key Features of Aeraki :
- It integrates seamlessly with Istio and is a recommended project for Istio Ecosystem integration. You can use Istio + Aeraki to build a full-stack service mesh that can manage both HTTP and other seven-layer protocols.
- Supports traffic management of open source protocols such as Dubbo, Thrift, and Redis in Istio.
- Supports traffic management of private protocols in Istio with only hundreds of lines of code and no changes to Istio.
- It supports request-level load balancing, dynamic routing with arbitrary matching conditions, global and local current limiting, traffic mirroring and other traffic management capabilities.
- Provides rich request-level performance indicators, including request delay, error, quantity, etc., and supports distributed call tracking.
At present, Aeraki has been applied in many large-scale projects such as CCTV, Tencent Music, Wang Zhe Dawn, etc., and has passed the practical test of the large-scale online traffic of the 2022 Winter Olympics.
