 Welcome to the Cillium Updates session. Were any of you at CilliumCon yesterday? Yes? Awesome right? It was good. Say, first section today is just a little welcome to Cillium session. How many of you are already using Cillium? Most of you? Good, so you probably mostly know what Cillium is. Very quickly, most of you probably use it as a CNI, so providing networking in Kubernetes. Cillium service mesh, which is extending that to service mesh capabilities using EBPF and highlighting the capabilities of Cillium as a networking platform. Hubble for observability, and we're going to hear a little bit more about Hubble and observability and Grafana integration later in this session. Of course, Tetragon. Let's get another show of hands. How many of you have tried Tetragon or been interested in Tetragon? Tetragon is the security observability sub-project in Cillium. I highly recommend you check it out. Really very briefly, Cillium covers Kubernetes networking in a really performance fashion because it's based on EBPF. Really high performance load balancing. We have users who are using it outside of Kubernetes as a load balancing platform. Security aspects around network policy and transparent encryption and, of course, the ability to integrate multiple Kubernetes clusters and external workloads. That is another thing that you will hear more about from Thomas shortly. Hubble is the observability platform that gives us visibility into individual network flows, aggregated metrics, service maps and the ability to export all this metric information to whatever you want to export it to, whether it's Fluent D or Prometheus or Grafana, Elastic, whatever sim you're using, we can use as a destination for Hubble information. Tetragon, which uses the EBPF knowledge that we have to instrument the kernel and give us insight into security-relevant events. Cillium is being used by a lot of people. We have a lot of use case studies, videos, blog posts and people describing how they're using Cillium that you can find on the Cillium website. We've already got over 100 end-users documented publicly in the user's file. Is there anybody here who is using Cillium but hasn't added themselves to the user's file? Nobody wants to confess to that. There's somebody who's confessed. Right, so you need to go to the users.md file and submit a pull request to add your organisation and we're seeing that number explode. Brilliant. You can use EBPF in basically any cloud environment and in fact it's being adopted by all the major cloud providers. AWS use it for EKS anywhere, Azure use it for the Azure C&I powered by Cillium and in Google Cloud it's part of GKE Data Plane v2. All of this information and more we've collected together into our first annual report at the end of last year. So Bill, who I'm sure many of you have interacted with one way or another, pulled together this annual report sharing all the statistics, all of the information, some of the user's stories and the news showing the progress of Cillium up to 2022. As lots of you know, yesterday we held the first ever Cillium Con. I think it's going to be the first of many because it was great. We had some fantastic end user stories so if you didn't make it yesterday, do check out the videos on YouTube when they're published because there are some really great talks. And the other thing that happened yesterday was we crossed a milestone. We went from slightly below 15,000 stars on GitHub at the beginning of the day to over 15,000 stars on GitHub by the end of Cillium Con. So I think that's another round of applause, right? We now have a contributor ladder. So if you want to get involved in whether it's development or other types of non-code contributions to Cillium, we have guidance on not just going to a good first issue, but also what the different roles are, how you can kind of take on more responsibility within the Cillium community. There's a contributors file that you can add yourself to if you're making non-code contributions. So things that otherwise wouldn't be tracked in GitHub, you can now make sure you do get the credit for that in GitHub. We have regular Cillium developer meetings. We've had a weekly meeting for forever, pretty much. We are now also experimenting with probably monthly meeting in the Asia Pacific time zone so that we can extend to more people around the world. We do have quite a lot of users and contributors in Asia Pacific, so it's really great that we can now welcome them to a regular meeting. Of course, there's always the Slack channel. Another thing that's happened since we last had an updates meeting is that we had a third-party security audit. So this was commissioned by the CNCF and an organisation called Oztiff, and they appointed a company called Adilogix to do a security audit. I think it's fair to say that Cillium passed it with flying colours. They didn't find any critical... I don't think they even found any high severity issues in the main security audit. They were very impressed with the security posture and the attitude that the maintainers have to security. So that was a really, really great milestone achieved and really valuable input as well. So we're grateful to the CNCF and Oztiff for providing that audit. We now have a training course. So Linux Foundation are publishing an introduction to Cillium. You can already sign up for it, and I think the first cast of it is about to be run in May. And with all these things, I think we can see the end-user adoption is really broad. We have the governance, I think, is in really great shape. The security side of things is in really good shape. So our graduation application that we put forward in Detroit, we hope we're really close to the TOC vote on that. There have been a few bits of paperwork that need to get finalised, but fingers crossed we will be in a position to be graduated very shortly, I hope. Which will be amazing, and we will definitely celebrate at the next QCON if we have graduated by then. So that's a little summary of what's been happening in Cillium since the last QCON. I think next we should hear from someone who can tell us about Cillium being used in the wild, tell us from the perspective of an end-user and end-user customers what their experience of using Cillium has been. So without further ado, let's give a warm welcome to Andy Allred, who is a Lead DevOps Consultant with Efficoad. Welcome, Andy. All right. Hello, everybody. Oh, it's weird to hear my voice like that. So, as Liz mentioned, I'm a Lead DevOps Consultant at Efficoad. Efficoad is the leading DevOps Consulting company in Northern Europe, and we're trying to expand that. We help companies modernise and upgrade and move to the cloud or at least move to more cloud-native-like thinking about their operations and their technologies. I want to tell you two stories about my use of Cillium. The first one is the first time I use Cillium, and the second one is the project I'm on right now. So the first time I use Cillium, I was in a previous company. We were doing telco billing systems, and we wanted to modernise what we had. Every time we deployed this, we needed to deploy it to the customers environment, which means we need to be able to deploy it to any of the three public clouds, to some partners' private clouds on-prem with probably VMware, but who knows? We have about 60 microservices. We were already on Mesos Marathon, so they were containerised, and that was good. Our data platform was on top of Cassandra. We also had MariaDB. We were using Galera. Cudw, Impala. Please don't ask it to nightmare. RabbitMQ, Redis, and of course we had to have Kafka there. So how are we going to modernise this and be able to deploy it to any of the clouds and on-prem and operate it the same way everywhere? Well, Kubernetes. It worked. We got things working. We got things up. We used various operators and controllers and got things running. We decided to use Istio for our ingress, and this was great, and then we just realised that, well, we would like to have, because this is sensitive information, we would like to have all of our data secured in transit. No problem. We just enabled MTLS and put sidecars everywhere. Sidecars starting up everywhere and all the kind of different operators from different providers and different types of containers and written in different languages turned into a nightmare. Like there has to be a better way. So income psyllium. This was 2018, so psyllium was still pretty young, but it seemed to work. So fantastic. Or, well, it wasn't fantastic, but it worked considering the constraints we had. So we have psyllium running there. We put in layer 7 policies, so we were able to manage which services talked to which, and because this was layer 7, it wasn't just a drop packet when something went to the wrong place. It got an error back saying you're not authorized to do that, which made debugging a little bit easier. We still had our ingress working via Istio. The network was secure. Everything was happy. No sidecars were good. And then I noticed one point that, hey, when we installed psyllium, we got something else here. It was Hubble. So it took a look at Hubble, and that was just a really, really valuable troubleshooting tool to see and realize what traffic is flowing inside the network. So, excellent. So, since then, every project I've worked on, especially since I moved to being a consultant, first thing we do is let's talk about getting psyllium in there with Hubble, so we have secure communications, and we can see what's happening, and that's just my default. The current project I'm working on is for a national nationwide bank in the European country. They have everything is on-prem at the moment, based on VMware. They have some services in the cloud in AWS. They would like to expand that, and they would like also to move to Azure and have some services running there. So we've helped them set up an internal development platform. This is based on Tallis, Kubernetes, and Linux, which lets us, using their Coupespan, have the control plane nodes running on-prem and worker nodes running on-prem in AWS and in Azure, and I know this is an anti-pattern, and it's a terrible idea, but it's what we need to do to fulfil the requirements, and it works. We've got Backstage, we've got Argo CD, we've got Argo workflows running the CI pipeline, and of course we have Silium there. We had a couple more things that we were missing. We would like to do a little bit more advanced layer 7 traffic modelling. We would like to configure where the egress is happening, a little bit better, and we would like to set up some ingress, or we would like to have the ingress managed inside the service mesh, not as an external thing. Around this time, Silium service mesh was in beta, so we took that into use and that's running. So as of today, we have our multi-cloud cluster running. We have nodes running in AWS, nodes running in Azure, nodes running in virtual machines on-prem, all part of the same cluster, so visibility is all through the same tool, Coup Control you can see everything HUBL you can see it all, et cetera, et cetera. We use taints and tolerations to assign workloads in the various locations, and then we use the egress configuration for making sure that the nodes in AWS, talking to AWS services, use the AWS egress and Azure the same, et cetera. It's actually working quite well, and we're really happy with it, so the Silium service mesh has been really nice. Our next steps, we want to take tetragon into use and start using that. We would like to get better visibility with Grafana, and we'll hear more about that in just a couple of minutes. And we would like to move to Gateway API support because ingress configuring is a little bit icky, and we would like to kind of simplify it with Gateway API, and I think that will help us. Spiffy is something we'd like to investigate, and then we want to check out cluster mesh and maybe the new Silium mesh, which was announced yesterday, and see if that helps us simplify things and give us the ability that we don't need a multi-cloud cluster, but we can have multiple clusters communicating nicely. That's how I'm using Silium, and that's why I recommend it always, and it's always part of my projects. If you'd like to talk more, I'm always happy to talk about Silium and anything around it. Thank you very much. Thank you, Andy. So, as he mentioned, I'd like to see more integration between Silium and Grafana. Well, let's welcome Richie Hartman, director of community from Grafana Labs, to talk about precisely that topic. Thank you. Thank you. Great segue from both Grafana integrations and from Hubble. Just to level set who here knows what Hubble is, really used it, knows it. Okay, so roughly half. At a very fundamental level, it is basically serial instrumentation insights into your network, and it can actually determine how your flows are going and all of this data is being exported into premises format, where through labels you know what the source and destination is, and you can also put more stuff on it, like for example Kubernetes labels and such, which allows you to really build a deep understanding of your actual services. So, there we go. So, the thing we are announcing is a new, we used to call them front-end plugins. The new name is Grafana app, because it's a little bit less confusing. And for the first time, you can actually get all of the power of Hubble directly from within Grafana. You don't have to use different platforms. I mean, we strongly believe in having one single pane of glass. We strongly believe in having a big tent. No matter where your data actually lives, you should be able to visualize it. So, with this serial instrumentation, you actually do get your full network observability. You can show service graphs, including all your Kubernetes metadata, and again, this is done by basically exporting all of this into premises. And you can go as deep or as high as you want with all of this. The nice thing about this Grafana app is it also comes with readymade dashboards. So, you don't have to start from scratch. You actually get something of value, and you can get started immediately. Just install it, and you get your dashboard. You see the service map, the HTTP service map, and you see the red metrics, and you get all of this out of the box. Again, you can drill down deeper if you want to be, like, really down to the individual pot, or you can just go by Kubernetes labels and go as deep or high in all of this as you want. And it's not just a dashboard. There's also an explore view. So, you can really interactively drill into your data as it comes in, and you can really understand what is happening, and take this learning back into improving your stuff, your application, or your dashboards. That's it. Thank you. Thank you, Richie. So, last but by very means, no means least, let's hear about what's coming next in Cillium and what's coming down the pipeline from Thomas Graff, CTO at iSurveillance. Thank you, Liz. I'm not quite as tall as Richie there. Awesome. So, the Cillium journey has been amazing, and we've been asking ourselves, what should be next for Cillium? Like, we've been implementing the full Kubernetes networking standards, services. We've now fully implemented Gateway API. Well, what do you want next? And we actually ran several surveys. We asked all of our 15,000 Slack members. Not all of them actually responded, but many of you did. And this is essentially what we came up with. So, this is Cillium 114 and beyond. This means some of these features will actually land in 114, which is coming out this summer. But not all of that, or it may come out as a better feature and will be stabilised later on. So, it's a bit of a mix. I would say, roughly over the next year, what is coming. First of all, MTLS for network policy. This is something we are super excited about, and we'll dive a little bit deeper. So, we'll keep it brief for now. This is based on the SPIFI and SPIRE integration that we are working on, that has been in the work for quite a while. That brings the MTLS authentication and obviously brings the certificate management into Cillium. We'll talk about that in a bit more detail as well. And then, I think I can't emphasise this enough. We are really focusing on improving and enhancing the day-to-operations of Cillium. Because Cillium is now everywhere, and we want to keep not only your life simple, but our life simple as well, and have as few slack incident reports as possible. So, we are involved a lot in improving day-to-operations. Not just on the user experience side, but also on proactive incidents avoidance. Of course, the partnership and the collaboration with Grafano is helping a lot. We are providing the observability that you can see what is going on in Cillium. But then more importantly, actually avoid incidents. So, we'll be investing a lot into proactively avoiding them by giving you tools that help you understand if Cillium, if your Kubernetes cluster from a networking perspective, gets out of, like, away from the default path, away from, like, the good land, and into, like, a bad shape. So, you can react before incidents. But even more importantly, we are investing a lot into the resilience path, into the resilience aspect, which has been a corner milestone of Kubernetes in general. We're pretty good at this already, but we can always do better. So, resilience will mean that we can recover from impacts from, like, unexpected behavior, maybe another component removing the EBPF programs that Cillium has installed and reinstalling them, and so on, and so on. Grafano dashboards and Hubble UI. We'll see a couple of additional dashboards and screenshots here. This is super exciting. I would say we've been a bunch of kernel engineers working on Cillium, and now, if the Grafano team helping us out, all of a sudden we're obviously in a very good position to provide a lot more observability. We'll talk about Istio Ambient Mesh and Sea Tunnel Integration. How many of you have heard about Istio Ambient Mesh? Excellent. Istio Ambient Mesh is essentially, has followed the Cillium Service Mesh model that we announced that brought Sidecar Free Service Mesh, and Istio Ambient Mesh is pretty similar. It also brings a Sidecar Free Service Mesh based on the Istio control plane. You just not have the EBPF-based implementation of some of the functionality that Cillium does, but it shares the view of removing the Sidecar proxy. We have been in collaboration with several Istio T members to essentially integrate the Sea Tunnel aspect. The Sea Tunnel is what provides MTLS in Istio Ambient Mesh and is what redirects the traffic to the Layer 7 proxy to bring the Sea Tunnel integration directly in Cillium itself, which means that you can run Cillium with Sea Tunnel and then run Istio Ambient Mesh on top and Istio Ambient Mesh only needs to take care of the Layer 7 aspect. This does not or will not replace any aspect of Cillium Service Mesh, but we understand that there are use cases where Cillium Service Mesh makes sense, there are use cases where Istio Ambient Mesh makes sense, and we want to provide a solution for all of you. Did we mention more Grafanaug dashboards already? And we'll have a big announcement. Well, maybe some of you have heard it yesterday at CilliumCon. We'll talk about this as well. So diving a little bit deeper, MTLS in our policy. Our goal is to provide you with an MTLS authentication layer that is incredibly easy to use and just simply works without actually deploying something additionally, so not deploying a full-blown service mesh. The way this will work is that the next version of Cillium will include a spiffy inspire out of the box that you can enable, which will generate the certificates for all the services as they come up. And then you, as a user, all you have to do is essentially augment your existing Cillium Network policies with the two lines you see on the screen, which mean you can say, I'm no longer just allowing two pods to talk to each other based on pod labels. I want to enforce authentication, which means that instead of just requiring the network policy and then the traffic being allowed on the network level, it will actually do an authentication using MTLS, and we'll look in a minute how that actually looks like. This, of course, needs to spiffy integration. We actually have a blog about this where you can dive a little bit deeper, but it is standard spiffy inspire, as you have probably heard it from Autotox. And then again, as I mentioned, the day-to-day two operational aspects. So let's dive a little bit deeper into this MTLS policy or policy implementation. How does that look like? You can take an existing Cillium Network policy allowing traffic from A to B, and you add the lines authentication required strict, which means that instead of just Cillium allowing this traffic on the network level, an additional MTLS authentication is required. And this is done using a new approach. It's not really new in the industry. It's new to Kubernetes. There's actually a couple of big companies, big tech companies who are doing this internally, so we have not invented this concept. We're bringing it to Kubernetes. This new MTLS model is splitting what's on the data path. That's where the data packets are actually going. That's where the data is flowing from the TLS handshake, which means that as a part talks to another part, the EVPF data path controlled by Cillium will hold up the packets. If the policy requires the authentication and will signal to a user space authentication agent, hey, wait a minute, I cannot go forward before you authenticate with the other side. And then two authentication agents will authenticate using MTLS and actually validate whether they should be talking to each other and whether the other peer is actually who they claim to be using SPIFI provided certificates. If all of that matches, the authentication agents will push down and say, yes, you're good to go. And then that points, the data path can actually forward the traffic. And it gets even better because we can actually then use the existing IPsec and WireGuard encryption layer that's in the kernel and use the key, the secret that was negotiated in the TNDM TLS handshake to actually encrypt. What this means is that we get native performance on the network using well-established IPsec and WireGuard, but we get encryption using per service certificates. This is really awesome because it means that you can actually rotate your certificates without breaking connections. You can have a fallback where you're saying if, for example, SPIFI is down for some reason and you cannot actually bring up new certificates in time, you could fall back to a per clusterwite key or secret to actually still encrypt everything. So this makes the whole solution more resilient and it allows to apply MTLS for any type of network traffic, not just TCP. So whether it's STDP, UDP, multi-cast, whatever it is, you can apply MTLS. Hubble UI with the Grafana integration, I think what we've brought here is the ability to embed Grafana panels that you are familiar with from the Grafana dashboards that we have and you can show and display them directly in Hubble UI where you already have the service map, where you have all of the metrics already, where you have the flow logs, everything in one place and then from the Hubble UI you can link out to the full-blown Grafana dashboards where you can use the explore mode, the zoom in mode and so on, but essentially we can embed all of the Grafana dashboards in Hubble UI separately. That's it, no? No, no, no. We have an announcement. What about this announcement? What did we want to announce? So we have announced Silium mesh yesterday at SiliumCon and we're framing this as the one mesh to connect them all. What this means is that we are evolving Silium further. So Silium started out as Kubernetes networking, making parts in a single cluster connect to each other and talk to each other. We expanded that to multi-cluster Kubernetes networking that's called cluster mesh. We then added service mesh, which was the layer 7 awareness, layer 7 load balancing and so on. What we're now doing is essentially bringing the Silium networking piece and the connectivity and the security and the observability to outside of Kubernetes. If you have existing virtual machines or servers or VPC or virtual networks or even networks running BGP on-prem, you can bring them and connect all of this into the Silium mesh, which means you can do something like this shown on the picture where you can bring, let's say, a different Kubernetes clusters, maybe one running in Azure or in GKE, AKS, EKS, doesn't matter. You could have an OpenShift cluster running on-prem, then you might have a bunch of VMs, EC2 VMs, and you might have actual physical machines somewhere or you might have a VM that is running VMs. You can mesh all of this together using Silium mesh. So essentially the principle one or the goal one of Silium mesh is to combine all the existing components that Silium brings, the Kubernetes networking where we run as a CNI, cluster mesh where we mesh the different clusters together, service mesh, which is the layer 7 capability, as well as the existing ingress and egress gateways where we were able to essentially feed traffic into a cluster or into our mesh and define what machine should be used when a package should leave the mesh. With a new component called transit gateway, we're able to deploy Silium essentially as a virtual appliance where you can run on a virtual machine or even on a server in a physical data center and act as a router. So you essentially have a box that can feed data in and out of the Silium mesh. This will expand Silium networking to beyond Kubernetes. So you can get our policy, MTLS, open telemetry support, all the Grafana dashboards, all of this becomes available outside of Kubernetes as well. With that, I think we have a couple of minutes for questions because this is the last session, so I guess nobody will kick us out of the room. So why don't we get all of the speakers back onto the stage and we can do a couple of questions. Thank you very much. Questions by anybody. Do we have a mic? Let's see now. Okay. Thank you. Tomas Borsner. So how will this work with the external workload? Will I need some agent running on every virtual machine or will this be, for example, virtual router running in the network of my virtual machines? How will this be connected together? Yes, so the agent running on the virtual machine or on a server is what we have so far. This is called external workload support. What's new in Silium mesh now is that it is essentially a router. That means it's running aside the virtual machine or the server so you don't have to change or install anything onto your VMs. So in the cloud, in a VPC, this would reconfigure the VPC networking to attract network traffic that the VM sent traffic there. And in an on-prem network, it will run VGP to attract the traffic. So it's not an agent. This is essentially the router appliance. I have a question for Liz. So one of the slides that you had, you mentioned that Silium is graduating CNCF pretty soon. You are excited about that. Could you maybe elaborate what does that mean for Silium? Specifically, what it meant for Silium when it was part of the CNCF and now that it leaves CNCF? What material changes for the Silium project? In a lot of ways, nothing. So graduation really is the CNCF putting a kind of stamp of we believe this is like de-risked. We think there is, for an end user who's trying to figure out what software components should I use in my cloud native implementation in my environment, which are the projects that are the most mature, that are the most widely adopted, that have essentially the kind of, what do you call it that? The crossing the chasm graph, where pretty much when you start to reach that mass adoption phase, is this project ready for mass adoption? That's really what the CNCF is saying when they give the graduation stamp of approval. So in many ways it doesn't materially change things other than giving end users perhaps that extra sense of confidence that this is really a mature project, it's well run and it's being used widely in production. Can you speak a little bit more about Tetragon and what kinds of things it can do? Because it's not super clear to me at this point. No, I'm here. Let's go back to that. Do we have a Tetragon slide? Yes, there is one. Let's go back, let's go back, let's go back. So Tetragon is EBPF based runtime, there we go. This is the Tetragon overuse slide. So Tetragon runs as an agent, go code, and then instruments the operating system, on purpose saying operating system because it's probably not long until it's no longer Linux specific right now. It is Linux specific, but EBPF has been ported to Windows. We're working really hard to also get Tetragon on Windows. So it's instrumenting the operating system to get first of all visibility. You can see what system calls are an application making, what files is it opening. You can monitor what capabilities does the process has. Does it run as root? Does it have the ability to delete the network interface? Can you use a raw socket? Does it have root privileges in the kernel? All of this. And then based on that observability, you can feed all of that into dashboard and figure out what your applications, your system and so on are actually doing. And based on information, you can start creating rules. What should your parts and your applications actually allow to perform? Should your application actually be allowed to access the authorized keys file in a home directory like for SSH? Or should it be able to write to the shadow file? Or should it be able to write to any file in slash ETC? Or should it be able to do network calls? And then we can prevent malicious activity. So we can prevent well-known attack vectors. But you can also simply reduce what's allowed so you can get to a least privileged security posture from a runtime perspective. Only allow what your application needs. So in the case that gets compromised, you cannot just issue any system call, but only the ones it needs. So it's additional runtime security, as well as security observability. Does that make sense as a quick answer? You mentioned that you're going to add support for ambient Istio mesh because you want to support existing customers, but say if I am in a position to go to a green field and choose whatever I want with MTLS being supported by Speefuswun, is there anything else in traditional service mesh that is missing from Selum the way it is now? And specifically the question I'm asking because I know you've been talking that Selum does not have the idea of implementing another control plane for the service mesh instead of focusing on the data path. So in the current, what you've presented, 1.14 and beyond, is there anything missing? Is there anything that I want from traditional service mesh to implement in the new Kubernetes setup or in the new cloud native stack? Great question. Yes, so the data path itself is envoy-based in both the case of Istio, Istio, Ambimesh and Selum, and Selum can then perform some of the activity in EBPF more effectively. So there's actually no difference in what the data path itself can do. Selum can sometimes do it more effectively. The difference is on the control plane side. Istio, the primary way of configuring Istio is through Istio CRDs, custom resources that define how you define the load balancing, the MTLS, what you want to see from an observability perspective. Selum does not implement Istio CRDs. Selum uses Gateway API, which is a new standard that is arising in Kubernetes, which is implementing most of that, but not quite all of it. So the one aspect that Selum service mesh does not implement today, and that is not on a roadmap right now, although if you want it, feel free to talk to us and we will definitely be considering it, is the support for Istio CRDs. So if you're out there right now and you are using Istio CRDs to configure Istio or Istio Ambimesh, then you cannot use that in the same way using Selum service mesh. But if you're using, for example, Gateway API through the Gama project, then both Istio Ambimesh and Selum service mesh would implement the same standard, Selum could do that more effectively. If you look at purely MTLS, so if your motivation is to deploy a service mesh primarily from an observability or an MTLS perspective, then you can simply use Selum without any service mesh, even without Selum service mesh, you get the Layer 7 observability with Hubble and you get MTLS using our policy implementation with Spiffy. So overall I think we are integrating where it makes sense. The piece that we most likely will not implement are the Istio CRDs because they're quite complex. There's a lot of them and the feedback for us was that we want something that is simpler. Does that help? Maybe we have a follow-up question. I think we have a small follow-up question. Yeah, I think one thing is not quite clear for me is that if I don't want Istio, but I want everything that you would want in the enterprise cloud solution, you want connections, you want policies, segregation and authorisation and all these things, why would I want Istio? You're putting me in a very challenging situation. I can't say this, but I will. You don't want Istio, you want Selum. Actually from a functionality perspective, we can almost do everything. I like very close and Selum has what's called Envoy CRD, which gives raw access to all the capability that Envoy provides and you can implement everything that Istio does via that as well if you want to. I just don't want to make the statement that you should not use Istio because that's totally fine. We even have an Istio integration in Selum and both can run nicely together. I strongly believe that it should be end users picking the solutions and not the people that create the solutions. I have a quick question about the Selum mesh that was just announced and how you have the gateway mentioned. You used an example where you'd said you'd have a gateway box in a private cloud or public cloud that was essentially receiving announced BGP announcements from that cloud and then attracting traffic for assuming consumers to be getting up to remote cloud edge systems that you're hosting in Selum community systems. Is there, to take that idea and abstract it a little bit, you're looking at like a SDN with BGP in these situations. What about the idea of saying Selum becomes transit for networks that are disparate across different cloud providers? You talk about BGP, how much tuning and how much is available there with the networking protocols to be able to find something like that. That's a great question. If we would rephrase or rename Selum mesh it could be intent based off the defined networking where intent is defined using Kubernetes CRDs instead of something like OpenFlow. It is essential like Selum is generic networking. You can program it. We can do a service-based overlays. You can do VRF. We can do Tineve overlays. You can do micro segmentation fully distributed. All of that is intent based. In the Kubernetes land nobody wants to call it SDN, but essentially it is an SDN. If you want to see this as an SDN it is totally fine. Most of the Selum team has been working on SDN solutions before. Most of us have worked on OpenVswitch which was the defining project during the network virtualisation age. It is definitely implementing the same functionality. That is just not what the cloud native world calls it. But it is functionality wise a full equivalent and better. Last call for questions. I think it is probably time for the boot call.
