Cilium 1.0: Bringing the BPF Revolution to Kubernetes Networking and Security

The last couple of months have been tremendously exciting for everyone working on Cilium and BPF. We have witnessed a fast growing community of Cilium users as well as the rapid increase of BPF usage and development with companies such as Google joining the existing already strong BPF community of engineers from Facebook, Netflix, Red Hat and many more. Possibly the strongest signal on the success of BPF has been the decisions of the Linux kernel community to replace the in-kernel implementation of iptables with BPF.
