Cilium 1.0: Bringing the BPF Revolution to Kubernetes Networking and Security
The last couple of months have been tremendously exciting for everyone working on Cilium and BPF. We have witnessed a fast growing community of Cilium users as well as the rapid increase of BPF usage and development with companies such as Google joining the existing already strong BPF community of engineers from Facebook, Netflix, Red Hat and many more.

Cilium 1.0.0-rc9 - Feature Freeze for 1.0!
We are excited to announce Cilium 1.0.0-rc9 with many, many bugfixes and the delivery of the final feature we were waiting on prior for 1.0: Egress policy enforcement support. It is therefore only logical that we announce full feature freeze with rc9. This means that we will only merge critical bugfixes and release 1.0 as soon as we have resolved all release blockers. More on this below. We are thrilled to have come this far and appreciate all of the efforts by the wide range of contributors that have helped to get us here. As usual, the full release notes are attached at the end of the blog but can be found on the 1.0.0-rc9 release page. The vast majority of the work in this release has been around bugfixes and testing. Here is a list of some highlights:
Release
Cilium 1.0.0-rc4 released
We are excited to have released Cilium 1.0.0-rc4. The release contains a lot of bugfixes as usual plus a lot of CI work to ensure quality long term but there are also some enhancements highlights and tooling worth mentioning.

Connectivity Troubleshooting with cilium-health
As we approach the upcoming 1.0 release, the Cilium community has been putting a lot of effort towards monitoring and troubleshooting. This has led to the development of several new tools in the project which we'll explore in this blog series. In this first part, we will cover **cilium-health**, a tool for troubleshooting intra-cluster connectivity issues.`
