Description

Cilium is an open-source tool designed to enhance, secure, and monitor network interactions among container workloads and cloud-native environments, leveraging the groundbreaking Kernel technology known as eBPF. Unlike traditional setups, Kubernetes does not inherently include a Load Balancing solution, which is often left to cloud providers or the networking teams in private cloud settings. By utilizing BGP, Cilium can manage incoming traffic effectively, while also using XDP and eBPF to optimize performance. These combined technologies deliver a powerful and secure load balancing solution. Operating at the kernel level, Cilium and eBPF allow for informed decisions regarding the connectivity of various workloads, whether they reside on the same node or across different clusters. Through the integration of eBPF and XDP, Cilium significantly enhances latency and performance, replacing the need for Kube-proxy altogether, which streamlines operations and improves resource usage. This not only simplifies the network architecture but also empowers developers to focus more on application development rather than infrastructure concerns.

Description

Optimize and simplify the management of Kubernetes (north-south) network traffic to ensure reliable, consistent performance at scale, all while maintaining the speed of your applications. Employ advanced application-centric configurations by utilizing role-based access control (RBAC) alongside self-service options to establish security guardrails, allowing your teams to manage their applications with both security and agility. This approach fosters multi-tenancy and reusability while offering simpler configurations and additional benefits. With a native, type-safe, and indented configuration style, you can streamline functionalities such as circuit breaking, advanced routing, header manipulation, mTLS authentication, and WAF. Furthermore, if you're currently utilizing NGINX, the NGINX Ingress resources facilitate a seamless transition of your existing configurations from other environments, enhancing your overall operational efficiency. This not only simplifies your network management but also empowers your development teams to innovate faster.
