A Cilium Introduction: Back to Bee-Sics - Nico Vibert & Dan Finneran, Isovalent

Cilium is now the first CNCF Graduated project in the Cloud Native Network category and has now its first certification with the Cilium Certified Associate (CCA) program! But while networking is a fundamental aspect of Kubernetes, it remains an intimidating topic for many engineers. In this session, you will learn that Kubernetes networking and Cilium don't need to be daunting subjects after all! This session will provide an introduction to the core Kubernetes networking requirements and how Cilium addresses these use cases. Expect an demo-packed and inclusive session where newcomers and experienced network engineers alike will improve their cloud native networking knowledge and understand the benefits of using Cilium and eBPF for networking, observability and security. Finally, the session will also provide tips on some of the core topics and domains covered in the Cilium Certified Associate and enable participants to effectively prepare for the exam.
