# cilium-k8s-CNI-guide

Welcome to the Cilium Kubernetes CNI Provider Guide. This repository serves as a comprehensive resource for users looking to understand and implement Cilium as a CNI provider within their Kubernetes clusters.

Cilium leverages eBPF to provide high-performance networking, observability, and security in Kubernetes environments.

## Contents

- **Part 1: Overview of eBPF and Cilium and the Installation Process**

  - Introduction to eBPF

  - Why Cilium?

  - Step-by-step installation guide

- **Part 2: Security Policies and Observability Leveraging Hubble**

  - Crafting and applying Cilium network policies

  - Using Hubble for network visibility

- **Part 3: Cluster Mesh**

  - Setting up Cilium Cluster Mesh

  - Cross-cluster connectivity

- **Part 4: IP Routing Modes (Direct and Encapsulated)**

  - Understanding IP routing in Cilium

  - Configuring Direct Routing and Encapsulation

- **Cilium Service Mesh**

  - Integrating Cilium with service mesh implementations

  - Benefits and considerations

## Getting Started

To get started with the Cilium Kubernetes CNI provider, you'll need a Kubernetes cluster where you can deploy Cilium. Follow the installation guide in Part 1 to begin your journey.
