• Cilium is a popular networking and security solution for Kubernetes that uses eBPF and is becoming the CNI of choice in the industry.
• Cilium provides high-performance load balancing, network policy, transparent encryption, and the ability to integrate multiple Kubernetes clusters and external workloads.
• Hubble is the observability platform that gives visibility into individual network flows, aggregated metrics, service maps, and the ability to export all this metric information to various destinations.
• Tetragon is the security observability subproject in Cilium that uses eBPF to instrument the kernel and give insight into security-relevant events.
• Cilium is being adopted by all major cloud providers, including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
• The presentation includes real-world use cases of Cilium from Isovalent, Grafana Labs, and Eficode.

• Project maturity is crucial for success within the CNCF
• Security is a top priority and projects must undergo independent security audits and fix critical vulnerabilities
• Clear and explicit definitions for project usage and contribution are necessary
• Adoption, security, and contribution are the three main categories for achieving project maturity
• Collaboration with Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs) is important for improving contributor base and project security
• Archiving is a natural process and lessons learned should be applied to other projects within the foundation
