Multi-cloud, multi-cluster Kubernetes deployments are used for high-availability, global distribution, to take advantage of different cloud vendor features, or to use both on-prem and public clouds. But sharing workloads in these distributed environments doesn’t have to be complicated! This talk uses live demos to introduce Cilium’s ClusterMesh capabilities, which make it easy to connect and secure workloads distributed across clouds and clusters.
* Securely connecting multiple Kubernetes clusters
* Distributing services across them
* Load balancing and service affinity
* Applying network policies across multiple clusters
* Exposing distributed services to external traffic
You’ll also learn about the requirements for the underlying internet connectivity between clusters, with an overview of IP address management considerations. You’ll need a basic familiarity with Kubernetes concepts like pods, services, nodes and clusters to get the most out of attending this talk.
