The term, in context

AI-assisted draft · approved dataset

Cilium is a Kubernetes networking plugin that uses eBPF programs running inside the Linux kernel to handle packet routing, load balancing, and security-policy enforcement without relying on iptables. Hubble is its companion observability layer, reading flow and security events straight out of that kernel data path and enriching them with Kubernetes identity information.
