Simplifying Multi-Cluster Networking With Cilium and MCS-API: A Technical Deep Dive - Arthur Outhenin-Chalandre, Ledger & Marco Iorio, Isovalent at Cisco

Tuesday April 1, 2025 11:15 - 11:40 BST

Level 3 | ICC Capital Suite 7-9

Multi-Cluster Services API (MCS-API), a standard driven by SIG Multicluster, extends Services across multiple clusters and is now supported in Cilium. While Cilium already enables multi-cluster services via annotations, MCS-API support brings it to the next level: create a ServiceExport resource referencing an existing Service to make it available to all clusters, enjoy DNS integration through the clusterset.local domain, and support for advanced features like Gateway API. All complemented by EndpointSlice synchronization, to enable external ingress controllers and more.

In this deep dive talk, expect to learn about the Cilium Cluster Mesh architecture, how we implemented MCS-API support, and all the lessons we learned along the way. We’ll also demo scenarios unlocked by MCS-API support and hidden secrets like how we (ab)used the Kubernetes EndpointSlice controller to reconcile EndpointSlices from remote clusters with very minimal code changes.
