In this talk Federico Hernandez and Simone Sciarrati will dive into how they performed the migration of the networking component for Meltwater’s production Kubernetes clusters - from the AWS VPC CNI plugin to Cilium.

Their team develops a platform on top of Kubernetes that serves 40+ teams, running 3000+ deployments and 10000+ pods utilising more than 8000 cores and 18TB memory, powering a large part of the Meltwater product.

During this presentation Federico and Simone will:

* Discuss the reasons behind the decision to migrate to Cilium
* Go into the details of the live migration, the challenges we faced before, during and after (yes, not everything went A-OK)
* Talk about the tooling they created to test the migration process and ensure the migration would be seamless

After a 30 minutes talk, there will be 15 minutes for Q&A. We’d like to encourage you to submit your questions in advance.

A recording of the webinar and related materials will be shared with webinar attendees afterwards.
