As Kubernetes becomes more pervasive in on- premise environments, users increasingly have both traditional applications and Cloud Native applications in their environments. In order to connect them together and allow outside access, a mechanism to integrate Kubernetes and the existing network infrastructure is needed. Cilium offers native support for BGP , exposing Kubernetes applications to the existing data center, without the need to install yet another tool.
