10 Years of Cilium: Connecting, Securing, and Simplifying the Cloud Native Stack – Liyi Huang, Isovalent (Cisco), Tingjin Ye, ANTA Sports Products Limited & Yashi Su, Alibaba Cloud
Join us as we celebrate a decade of Cilium, now the de-facto standard CNI for Kubernetes and a cornerstone of cloud native networking and security. This session provides updates on the latest Cilium release and highlights how its unified eBPF-powered stack is transforming Kubernetes environments and beyond by replacing fragmented toolchains with seamless, secure, scalable, and simplified solutions.
We’ll showcase how Anta Group used the ‘Less is More’ approach in their data center architecture by consolidating core networking, load balancing, and observability into Cilium and how Alibaba is using Tetragon to secure AI agents beyond just prompt guardrails. These stories will demonstrate how Cilium is streamlining operations and reshaping the cloud native stack, cementing Cilium’s role as the networking and security data plane for modern infrastructure for the next decade to come.
