[Starlingx-discuss] Cilium over Calico

[bnovickovs at weecodelab.com]

Hi,

I am wondering, if there is possibility of using Cilium CNI instead of 
Calico?

According to this comparison 
https://itnext.io/benchmark-results-of-kubernetes-network-plugins-cni-over-10gbit-s-network-updated-august-2020-6e1b757b9e49 
; Calico is still better in terms of performance/resource consumption. 
However, if we consider production-grade bare metal k8s cluster, Cilium 
offers:
  - better visibility/observation
  - encryption
  - and it seems like comparing to Calico, Cilium project seems to be 
more active.

Thank you
