Join us to explore how Cilium powered by eBPF, provides seamless multi-cloud and multi-tenancy networking capabilities. In this session, we will deep dive into Cilium features, including BGP, Load Balancing, LB IPAM, and Network Policies, and how they provide secure and scalable networking solutions.

We will discover how Cilium allows for efficient routing and connectivity between Kubernetes clusters and external networks. We will explore the setup and configuration of BGP with Cilium including its adaptability to different network topologies.

Additionally, we will delve into Cilium’s Load Balancing capabilities, which provide advanced load distribution and high availability for applications. We will discuss its integration with LB IPAM and how it enables platform engineers to configure multi-tenancy routing with multiple IP pools for assigning Load Balancer IPs.

Furthermore, we will discuss how Network Policies can be leveraged to implement security for multi-tenancy workloads. Throughout the session, we will provide examples, configuration guides, and best practices for implementing these features effectively in real-world scenarios. Whether you are a Platform Engineer, Kubernetes administrator, or developer, this session will equip you with the knowledge and tools to optimize your Kubernetes networking architecture with Cilium.

A technical presentation demonstrating how Cilium uses eBPF to provide enterprise-grade Kubernetes networking capabilities. The session covers BGP routing, Layer 2 announcements, load balancer IP management (LBIPM), and Gateway API integration for multi-tenant environments. Includes a live demonstration of configuring BGP peering between Kubernetes nodes and physical routers, implementing IP pool separation for different tenants, and automatically advertising load balancer IPs through BGP to external networks.
