OpenZiti v2.0 released today!
OpenZiti is an open-source, zero-trust networking platform that creates an overlay network so outside parties (users, applications, devices, and so on) can only connect to your services and resources if they identify themselves. Once connected, what they're permitted to do is limited by policy, with no public listening ports required.
Version 2.0’s new features:
✅ HA (high-availability) controllers are now ready for production use.
✅ OIDC/JWT-based enrollment as the default auth path.
✅ A new permissions model (beta)
✅ The ability to bind controller APIs entirely over the overlay (goodbye, last listening port!)
✅ A reorganized ziti CLI, and a stack of clustering and performance and performance improvements.
This new version paves the way for AI features, including LLM Gateway, MCP Gateway, and something we call “Agora.”
