Panel: Are We There Yet? Native Kubernetes Networking for Telecom Workloads - Gergely Csatari, Nokia; Lionel Jouin, Ericsson; Surya Seetharaman, Red Hat & Antonio Ojea, Google
Tuesday April 1, 2025 12:55 - 13:30 BST
Level 3 | ICC Capital Suite 10-12
Kubernetes and the cloud native paradigm is beneficial not for web services, but for telecom and networking workloads also. These telecom and networking workloads have more special requirements for the platform due to the nature of their functionality. One big area for these extra requirements is networking. The cloud native ecosystem responded to these needs with a couple of additions to Kubernetes, but these can not provide complete functionality without modifications in Kubernetes itself. In this panel leading experts in Kubernetes networking who are in the forefront of developing and providing these additional features will discuss what are the still missing features, how to find a balance between modifying Kubernetes and providing an add-on components, and what are the limitations of modifying Kubernetes.
