Harness simplifies the adoption of Service Mesh technology and traffic management in Kubernetes deployments by enabling automated Canary Deployments with traffic splitting, which reduces operational complexity and accelerates innovation. The platform allows users to implement and manage traffic shifting rules without getting bogged down by the intricacies of network configuration and orchestration, particularly during deployments. By integrating Istio and Kubernetes within its workflows, Harness allows teams to focus on defining outcomes and rules, leveraging features like a 20/80 traffic split for Canary Deployments. It supports users in setting up workflows, managing services, and applying configurations through a user-friendly interface, ultimately empowering teams to adopt new technologies quickly and efficiently.
