SOLUTION OVERVIEW

To improve protection for complex, interconnected workload architectures, VMware has integrated Venafi’s machine identity control plane into its Tanzu Service Mesh. The solution enables Tanzu users to integrate their Service Mesh with a trusted certificate authority (CA) of their choice to support mutual Transport Layer Security (mTLS) between Kubernetes clusters. This allows the certificates generated for services to be part of the organizational CA trust chain. This increases observability and control for organizations, while ensuring compliance in regulated industries.
