Key highlights include: Isovalent Networking for Virtualization (INV) reaching GA with KubeVirt/OpenShift Virtualization support, IP-preserving migration via Network Bridge, and DHCP support; ExternalLB in Isovalent Load Balancer 1.19 enabling shared load balancing as a service for tenant clusters without per-cluster agents; Isovalent Networking for Kubernetes 1.19 adding policy-controlled BGP route import, structured network policy evaluation, and FQDN HA offline mode; Isovalent Runtime Security 1.19 introducing process-aware TetragonNetworkPolicy and improved File Integrity Monitoring; and Hubble Timescape 1.19 adding CEL-based filtering, policy editing, process ancestry, and OpenShift operator support. The release is built on Cilium, Tetragon, Hubble, and eBPF, aiming to unify networking, security, and observability controls across Kubernetes clusters, VMs, and cloud/datacenter environments. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
