This episode of the Kubernetes podcast features an interview with Bill Mulligan, a community builder at Isovalent and a committer to Cilium. They discuss the importance of eBPF technology and how it functions as a way to run specified programs in the Linux kernel during certain events. The conversation also covers the role of Cilium as an ABPF-powered networking, observability, and security tool. The episode explores the evolution of Cilium from a connectivity layer for containers to a comprehensive solution for service mesh, network policy, and multi-cluster mesh. Additionally, the interview touches on the recent acquisition of Isovalent by Cisco and the future of Cilium as a bridge between traditional networking and cloud-native systems.
