Network QoS Support for Kubernetes Applications

Explore traffic shaping and network Quality of Service (QoS) support for Kubernetes applications in this informative conference talk. Discover how traffic shaping is implemented in Kubernetes using bandwidth-related annotations in Pod metadata. Learn about the limitations of kubenet support and the need for a new solution as kubenet faces deprecation. Gain insights into a new implementation that introduces a simple CNI plugin utilizing Linux tc to create ingress and egress rate limiters with burst capabilities. Understand the progress of this CNI plugin's contribution to the CNI community and its ongoing integration with Kubernetes, led by the Kubernetes SIG Network.
