Securely Bridging Cloud-Native and Traditional Workloads...
summary
Not everyone can move to Kubernetes at once so SPIRE provides a single identity layer that issues X.509 or JWT identities to services across clouds, datacenters and clusters. A central SPIRE server verifies agents against cloud and Kubernetes APIs while agents perform workload attestation via OS and platform primitives and then mint identities according to policy. Once services hold those identities they establish mTLS and other secure connections uniformly, and examples show patterns for hybrid legacy and cloud native integrations.
