Cilium is open source software for transparently securing the network connectivity between application services deployed using Linux container management platforms like Docker and Kubernetes.
At the foundation of Cilium is a new Linux kernel technology called BPF, which enables the dynamic insertion of powerful security visibility and control logic within Linux itself. Because BPF runs inside the Linux kernel itself, Cilium security policies can be applied and updated without any changes to the application code or container configuration.

Cilium is open source software for providing and transparently securing network connectivity and loadbalancing between application containers and services deployed using Linux container management platforms like Docker and Kubernetes.
A new Linux kernel technology called eBPF is at the foundation of Cilium, which enables the dynamic insertion of BPF bytecode into the Linux kernel. Cilium generates eBPF programs for each individual application container to provide networking, security, loadbalancing and visibility.
BPF & Cilium - Turning Linux into a Microservices-aware Operating SystemThomas Graf
Container runtimes cause Linux to return to its original purpose: to serve applications interacting directly with the kernel. At the same time, the Linux kernel is traditionally difficult to change and its development process is full of myths. A new efficient in-kernel programming language called eBPF is changing this and allows everyone to extend existing kernel components or glue them together in new forms without requiring to change the kernel itself.
The Linux kernel is undergoing the most fundamental architecture evolution in history and is becoming a microkernel. Why is the Linux kernel evolving into a microkernel? The potentially biggest fundamental change ever happening to the Linux kernel. This talk covers how companies like Facebook and Google use BPF to patch 0-day exploits, how BPF will change the way features are added to the kernel forever, and how BPF is introducing a new type of application deployment method for the Linux kernel.

What are the methods for packet processing on Linux? And how fast are each packet processing methods? In this presentation, we will learn how to handle packets on Linux (User space, socket filter, netfilter, tc), and compare performance with analysis of where each packet processing is done in the network stack (hook point). Also, we will discuss packet processing using XDP, an in-kernel fast-path recently added to the Linux kernel. eXpress Data Path (XDP) is a high-performance programmable network data-path within the Linux kernel. The XDP is located at the lowest level of access through SW in the network stack, the point at which driver receives the packet. By using the eBPF infrastructure at this hook point, the network stack can be expanded without modifying the kernel.

Linux offers an extensive selection of programmable and configurable networking components from traditional bridges, encryption, to container optimized layer 2/3 devices, link aggregation, tunneling, several classification and filtering languages all the way up to full SDN components. This talk will provide an overview of many Linux networking components covering the Linux bridge, IPVLAN, MACVLAN, MACVTAP, Bonding/Team, OVS, classification & queueing, tunnel types, hidden routing tricks, IPSec, VTI, VRF and many others.
Kubernetes currently has two load balancing mode: userspace and IPTables. They both have limitation on scalability and performance. We introduced IPVS as third kube-proxy mode which scales kubernetes load balancer to support 50,000 services. Beyond that, control plane needs to be optimized in order to deploy 50,000 services. We will introduce alternative solutions and our prototypes with detailed performance data.
Using eBPF for High-Performance Networking in CiliumScyllaDB
The Cilium project is a popular networking solution for Kubernetes, based on eBPF. This talk uses eBPF code and demos to explore the basics of how Cilium makes network connections, and manipulates packets so that they can avoid traversing the kernel's built-in networking stack. You'll see how eBPF enables high-performance networking as well as deep network observability and security.
DockerCon 2017 - Cilium - Network and Application Security with BPF and XDPThomas Graf
This talk will start with a deep dive and hands on examples of BPF, possibly the most promising low level technology to address challenges in application and network security, tracing, and visibility. We will discuss how BPF evolved from a simple bytecode language to filter raw sockets for tcpdump to the a JITable virtual machine capable of universally extending and instrumenting both the Linux kernel and user space applications. The introduction is followed by a concrete example of how the Cilium open source project applies BPF to solve networking, security, and load balancing for highly distributed applications. We will discuss and demonstrate how Cilium with the help of BPF can be combined with distributed system orchestration such as Docker to simplify security, operations, and troubleshooting of distributed applications.
Replacing iptables with eBPF in Kubernetes with CiliumMichal Rostecki
Cilium is an open source project which provides networking, security and load balancing for application services that are deployed using Linux container technologies by using the native eBPF technology in the Linux kernel. In this presentation we talked about:
- The evolution of the BPF filters and explained the advantages of eBPF Filters and its use cases today in Linux especially on how Cilium networking utilizes the eBPF Filters to secure the Kubernetes workload with increased performance when compared to legacy iptables.
- How Cilium uses SOCKMAP for layer 7 policy enforcement - How Cilium integrates with Istio and handles L7 Network Policies with Envoy Proxies.
- The new features since the last release such as running Kubernetes cluster without kube-proxy, providing clusterwide NetworkPolicies, providing fully distributed networking and security observability platform for cloud native workloads etc.
Accelerating Envoy and Istio with Cilium and the Linux KernelThomas Graf
This talk will provide an introduction to injection options of Envoy and then deep dive into ongoing Linux kernel work that enables injecting Envoy while introducing as little latency as possible.
The servicemesh and the sidecar proxy model are on a steep trajectory to redefine many networking and security use cases. This talk explains and demos a new socket redirect Linux kernel technology that allows running Envoy with similar performance as if the sidecar was linked to the application using a UNIX domain socket. The talk will also give an outlook on how Envoy can use the recently merged kernel TLS functionality to gain access to the clear text payload transparently for end to end encrypted applications without requiring to decrypt and re-encrypt any data to further reduce the overhead and latency.
An Introduction to eBPF (and cBPF). Topics covered include history, implementation, program types & maps. Also gives a brief introduction to XDP and DPDK
This presentation features a walk through the Linux kernel networking stack covering the essentials and recent developments a developer needs to know. Our starting point is the network card driver as it feeds a packet into the stack. We will follow the packet as it traverses through various subsystems such as packet filtering, routing, protocol stacks, and the socket layer. We will pause here and there to look into concepts such as segmentation offloading, TCP small queues, and low latency polling. We will cover APIs exposed by the kernel that go beyond use of write()/read() on sockets and will look into how they are implemented on the kernel side.
eBPF is an exciting new technology that is poised to transform Linux performance engineering. eBPF enables users to dynamically and programatically trace any kernel or user space code path, safely and efficiently. However, understanding eBPF is not so simple. The goal of this talk is to give audiences a fundamental understanding of eBPF, how it interconnects existing Linux tracing technologies, and provides a powerful aplatform to solve any Linux performance problem.
In this session, we’ll review how previous efforts, including Netfilter, Berkley Packet Filter (BPF), Open vSwitch (OVS), and TC, approached the problem of extensibility. We’ll show you an open source solution available within the Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel, where extending and merging some of the existing concepts leads to an extensible framework that satisfies the networking needs of datacenter and cloud virtualization.
Session at ContainerDay Security 2023 on the 8th of March in Hamburg.
Cilium is the next generation, eBPF powered open-source Cloud Native Networking solution, providing security, observability, scalability, and superior performance. Cilium is an incubating project under CNCF and the leading CNI for Kubernetes. In this session we will introduce the fundamentals of Cilium Network Policies and the basics of application-aware and Identity-based Security. We will discuss the default-allow and default-deny approaches and visualize the corresponding ingress and egress connections. Using the Network Policy Editor we will be able to demonstrate how a Cilium Network Policy looks like and what they mean on a given Kubernetes cluster. Additionally, we will walk through different examples and demonstrate how application traffic can be observed with Hubble and show how you can use the Network Policy Editor to apply new Cilium Network Policies for your workloads. Finally, we’ll demonstrate how Tetragon provides eBPF-based transparent security observability combined with real-time runtime enforcement.
In this slide, we discussed the IPVS, including the introduction, demonstration, implementation, and integration in Kubernetes.
IPVS was based on the netfilter and we discussed how it works with iptables and also compares the detail implementation in Kubernetes to show why IPVS has a better performance in IPTABLES.
Unifying Network Filtering Rules for the Linux Kernel with eBPFNetronome
At the core of fast network packet processing lies the ability to filter packets, or in other words, to apply a set of rules on packets, usually consisting of a pattern to match (L2 to L4 source and destination addresses and ports, protocols, etc.) and corresponding actions (redirect to a given queue, or drop the packet, etc.). Over the years, several filtering frameworks have been added to Linux. While at the lower level, ethtool can be used to configure N-tuple rules on the receive side for the hardware, the upper layers of the stack got equipped with rules for firewalling (Netfilter), traffic shaping (TC), or packet switching (Open vSwitch for example).
In this presentation, Quentin Monnet reviewed the needs for those filtering frameworks and the particularities of each one. Then focuses on the changes brought by eBPF and XDP in this landscape: as BPF programs allow for very flexible processing and can be attached very low in the stack—at the driver level, or even run on the NIC itself—they offer filtering capabilities with no precedent in terms of performance and versatility in the kernel. Lastly, the third part explores potential leads in order to create bridges between the different rule formats and to make it easier for users to build their filtering eBPF programs.
netfilter is a framework provided by the Linux kernel that allows various networking-related operations to be implemented in the form of customized handlers.
iptables is a user-space application program that allows a system administrator to configure the tables provided by the Linux kernel firewall (implemented as different netfilter modules) and the chains and rules it stores.
Many systems use iptables/netfilter, Linux's native packet filtering/mangling framework since Linux 2.4, be it home routers or sophisticated cloud network stacks.
In this session, we will talk about the netfilter framework and its facilities, explain how basic filtering and mangling use-cases are implemented using iptables, and introduce some less common but powerful extensions of iptables.

Cilium - Fast IPv6 Container Networking with BPF and XDPThomas Graf
We present a new open source project which provides IPv6 networking for Linux Containers by generating programs for each individual container on the fly and then runs them as JITed BPF code in the kernel. By generating and compiling the code, the program is reduced to the minimally required feature set and then heavily optimised by the compiler as parameters become plain variables. The upcoming addition of the Express Data Plane (XDP) to the kernel will make this approach even more efficient as the programs will get invoked directly from the network driver.

This talk will start with a deep dive and hands-on examples of BPF, possibly the most promising low-level technology to address challenges in application and network security, tracing, and visibility. We will discuss how BPF evolved from a simple bytecode language to filter raw sockets for tcpdump to the a JITable virtual machine capable of universally extending and instrumenting both the Linux kernel and user space applications. The introduction is followed by a concrete example of how the Cilium open source project applies BPF to solve networking, security and load balancing for highly distributed applications. We will discuss and demonstrate how Cilium with the help of BPF can be combined with distributed system orchestration such as Docker to simplify security, operations, and troubleshooting of distributed applications.
Application Visibility and Experience through Flexible NetflowCisco DevNet
The world of applications is changing rapidly in the enterprise; from the way applications are increasingly hosted in the cloud, the diverse nature of apps and to the way they are consumed by many devices. The need for organizations and network administrators is to focus on "Fast IT" - "Innovation in the Enterprise" is growing, which means having to spend less time on daily operations, maintenance and troubleshooting and more time on delivering business value with newer services. Cisco AVC with its NBAR2 technology is designed to detect applications and measure application performance through measuring round trip time, retransmission rates, jitter, delay, packet loss, MoS, URL statistics etc. Those details are transmitted using Flexible Netflow/IPFIX, so partners could leverage the data for application usage reporting, performance reporting and troubleshooting application issues to deliver best possible application experience.

Managing and Monitoring Application PerformanceSebastian Marek
Writing your application is one thing. Making the application to perform well is another. We usually forget there is somebody else on the other side of the screen, that becomes very frustrated and upset when he needs to wait until this one page finally loads. It requires a lot of experience to predict specific behaviour and to know what kind of things to avoid. And even with that there is so many different factors that can affect the end user experience. During this talk I will talk about tools and techniques you can use to measure and monitor your application performance.
Network Performance: Making Every Packet Count - NET401 - re:Invent 2017Amazon Web Services
Many applications are network I/O bound, including common database-based applications and service-based architectures. But operating systems and applications are often not tuned to deliver high performance. This session uncovers hidden issues that lead to low network performance, and shows you how to overcome them to obtain the best network performance possible.
Kubernetes Networking in Amazon EKS (CON412) - AWS re:Invent 2018Amazon Web Services
In this talk, we share a real-world experience of how AWS securely implements Kubernetes network abstractions at scale. We also explore the pain points in the current Kubernetes networking design, best practices for troubleshooting, and future improvements.
WebSocket is cool, and you probably already played with it. But it’s just a transport technology. If you have thousands of client connections you need to do lots of improvements to make it scalable, reliable and achieve high performance. You need to implement many things on top of it.
We are building financial data streaming platform for thousands of traders using WebSocket. I’m going to share my experience and cover such techniques as delta delivery, conflation, dynamic throttling, bandwidth and frequency limitation and other. I will also do a live demo of how to build scalable WebSocket backend from scratch using Java and Spring.
As containers are being deployed as part of multi tenant clusters, virtual multi layer switches become essential to interconnect containers while providing isolation guarantees. Assigning tenants their own private networks requires stateful network address translation (NAT) implemented in a scalable architecture to expose containers to public networks. Existing virtual switches integrated into the Linux kernel did not support stateful NAT so far. This presentation introduces a new virtual NAT service deployable as container built using existing kernel functionality such as network namespaces, routing rules and Netfilter to provide NAT services to existing virtual switches such as Open vSwitch and the Linux bridge but also the core L3 layer of Linux.
Taking Security Groups to Ludicrous Speed with OVS (OpenStack Summit 2015)Thomas Graf
Open vSwitch (OVS) has long been a critical component of the Neutron's reference implementation, offering reliable and flexible virtual switching for cloud environments.
Being an early adopter of the OVS technology, Neutron's reference implementation made some compromises to stay within the early, stable featureset OVS exposed. In particular, Security Groups (SG) have been so far implemented by leveraging hybrid Linux Bridging and IPTables, which come at a significant performance overhead. However, thanks to recent developments and ongoing improvements within the OVS community, we are now able to implement feature-complete security groups directly within OVS.
In this talk we will summarize the existing Security Groups implementation in Neutron and compare its performance with the Open vSwitch-only approach. We hope this analysis will form the foundation of future improvements to the Neutron Open vSwitch reference design.
Open vSwitch - Stateful Connection Tracking & Stateful NATThomas Graf
Update on status of connection tracking and stateful NAT addition to the Linux kernel datapath. Followed by a discussion on the topic to collect ideas and come up with next steps.
The Next Generation Firewall for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 RCThomas Graf
The Linux packet filtering technology, iptables, has its roots in times when networking was relatively simple and network bandwidth was measured in mere megabits. Emerging technologies, such as distributed NAT, overlay networks and containers require enhanced functionality and additional flexibility. In parallel, the next generation of network cards with speeds of 40Gb and 100Gb will put additional pressure on performance.
In the upcoming Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, a new dynamic firewall service, FirewallD, is planned to provide greater flexibility over iptables by eliminating service disruptions during rule updates, abstraction, and support for different network trust zones. Additionally, a new virtual machine-based packet filtering technology, nftables, addresses the functionality and flexibility requirements of modern network workloads.
In this session you’ll:
Deep dive into the newly introduced packet filtering capabilities of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 beta.
Learn best practices.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.
Listen to the keynote address and hear about the latest developments from Rachana Ananthakrishnan and Ian Foster who review the updates to the Globus Platform and Service, and the relevance of Globus to the scientific community as an automation platform to accelerate scientific discovery.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.
