Exploring the world of Cilium: a hands-workshop on Cilium, Tetragon & eBPF

In this video, you will learn how to use Cilium and its sister projects (Hubble and Tetragon) to address many networking, observability, security, and service mesh use cases. You will also be able to watch the presenters go through an Isovalent lab, join in and earn badges!

 

Cilium is the first and only graduated CNCF project in the Cloud Native Network category and is powered by a revolutionary technology called eBPF, unlocking Cloud Native networking, security, and observability right in the Linux kernel.

But networking remains an intimidating technology for many in the cloud native space.

How are my microservices talking to each other? Where are my packets? How do I make sure my traffic between Pods is encrypted? How do I bring traffic into the cluster? How do I connect clusters together?

In this interactive hands-on workshop, you will learn how to use Cilium and its sister projects (Hubble and Tetragon) to address many of your networking, observability, security, and service mesh use cases.

All are welcome – whether you are new to the cloud native ecosystem, an experienced networking architect or a seasoned platform engineer, there will be a lab for you to learn and challenge yourself.

In particular, Platform-focused subjects will include Cloud Native L7 routing with Gateway API, Kubernetes Observability (with Cilium, Hubble, Prometheus and Grafana), as well as platform security (both Kubernetes nodes and pods) with Tetragon.

Getting Started with Cilium

Cilium is an open source software for transparently securing the network connectivity between application services deployed using Linux container management platforms like Docker and Kubernetes. At the foundation of Cilium is a new Linux kernel technology called eBPF, which enables the dynamic insertion of powerful security visibility and control logic within Linux itself. Because eBPF runs inside the Linux kernel, Cilium security policies can be applied and updated without any changes to the application code or container configuration. In this interactive, hands-on lab we provide you a fully fledged Cilium installation on a small cluster and a few challenges to solve. See for yourself how Cilium works and how it can help you by securing a moon-sized battlestation in a “Star Wars”-inspired challenge.

Discovery: Platform Engineer

In this short hands-on discovery lab designed for Platform and DevOps Engineers, you will learn, in 15 minutes, several Cilium features, including: Observability Built-in Ingress and Gateway API Performance Monitoring Integration with Grafana And more!

Cilium Gateway API
Labs

Cilium Gateway API

In this short lab, you will learn about Gateway API, a new Kubernetes standard on how to route traffic into a Kubernetes cluster. The Gateway API is the next generation of the Ingress API. Gateway API addresses some the Ingress limitations by providing an extensible, role-based and generic model to configure advanced L7 traffic routing capabilities into a Kubernetes cluster. In this lab, you will learn how you can use the Cilium Gateway API functionality to route HTTP and HTTPS traffic into your Kubernetes-hosted application, including load balancing / traffic splitting and TLS passthrough or termination.
