We deploy Calico Opensource in all our managed Kubernetes and Openshift clusters for both policy and for pod networking.
We (SIGHUP) use Calico as the default CNI for the open-source Kubernetes Fury Distribution.
We integrate Calico with the FD.io/VPP data plane to provide optimal performance for Containerized Networking Functions.
Tanzu Kubernetes Grid supports Calico open-source as a CNI option, where it provides reliable pod network connectivity and security.
We have been using Calico in our Openstack clusters. By peering directly with the network infrastructure using BGP, our customers can benefit from ECMP load balancing, path redundancy, and in the future, advanced features like gslb/ IP anycast.
We are currently developing our Release-2 roadmap, and are focused on integrating Project Calico into our Managed Elastic Kubernetes Service (mEKS) product.
We recommend Calico as the default networking and security solution for customers using the Rafay Kubernetes Operations Platform. No one should run Kubernetes without Calico networking and security.
It’s extremely helpful to know what endpoints your services are talking to. We have a much-improved security posture.
We were able to achieve EU GDPR compliance and securely deploy 20 new cloud-native applications.
We are using Calico as a consumer in our K8s.
We are using Calico for managed AKS clusters.
We are using Calico for Kubernetes network policies.
