Detailed explanation of Cilium Architecture and Hubble | eBPF-Powered Kubernetes Networking

In this video, we break down the Cilium Architecture — the next-generation CNI that’s transforming Kubernetes networking with eBPF.

( plz note: the content is generated by Mr.Soubhagya, Network engineer at IMESH, but we have selected AI voice over for his avatar to avoid any mother-tounge-influence(MTIs) in global reach)

You’ll learn:
✅ Why older CNIs like Flannel and Calico are no longer enough
✅ How Cilium uses eBPF to deliver faster, more secure, and observable networking
✅ The role of key components — Cilium Agent, CNI Plugin, Client, Operator, Hubble, and Envoy
✅ How observability is achieved using Hubble Relay, CLI, and UI
✅ Why Cilium is ideal for modern, large-scale Kubernetes clusters

By the end, you’ll have a clear understanding of how Cilium connects orchestration tools like Kubernetes with kernel-level performance using eBPF — all while providing deep visibility and L7 security.
