See how you can use Skupper to create a network of clusters in which a Kubernetes service on one cluster can be accessed from any other.
See how Skupper can enable you to host a PostgreSQL database in a private cluster and then access it from two other public clusters.
See how you can deploy the HTTP-based Bookinfo application from the Istio project with no changes to the application code.
