Using multiple cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.) eliminates single points of failure and reduces vendor lock-in, but introduces challenges like fragmented operations, tool sprawl, inconsistent security policies, and incomplete observability. Isovalent's Cilium CNI addresses these challenges by providing a provider-agnostic, consistent networking and security layer across any cloud. Built on eBPF, Cilium offers identity-aware network policies, unified observability via Hubble Timescape, high-performance load balancing, and multi-cluster connectivity through ClusterMesh — enabling enterprises to maintain a consistent operational model regardless of underlying cloud infrastructure. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
