Meshery is a CNCF project that turns the fragmented world of cloud-native operations into something you can see, design, and reason about. This book walks through the platform from the ground up: what Meshery is and the sprawl it tames, its server-broker-operator architecture, the registry of Models, Components, and Relationships that gives it semantic understanding, the visual design canvas and GitOps workflows, MeshSync real-time discovery across clusters, the gRPC adapters and WASM filter management for service meshes, performance characterization with the Service Mesh Performance specification, the pluggable provider model that powers collaboration and RBAC, and how to put it all to work in practice.
