Learn about new additions to open source projects led by the Cisco Engineering team that are contributing more security features and functionality for Kubernetes and cloud native environments.

Cisco Emerging Technologies & Incubation (ET&I) intends to bolster its cloud-native portfolio with Lightspin focused on end-to-end security and observability.

Today at KubeCon, Cisco announced FunctionClarity - a new open source project which helps developers secure the serverless functions that fundamentally reduce the amount of code necessary to create and deploy cloud-native applications. FunctionClarity is part of OpenClarity, a trio of open source projects which help solve problems around application security, and the software supply chain.

For businesses that adopt a robust application development ecosystem—with integral API connectivity and security—the new application imperative can be a significant competitive advantage.

The ability to program a massive application by piecing together services gives us incredible flexibility. But it also presents new problems, from API security to observability. Join Vijoy at KubeCon to discuss this challenge and to introduce APIClarity, a new open source program supported by Cisco.

A new holographic video conferencing application makes its debut, as the Network Service Mesh (NSM) community demonstrates how to make networking cloud native.

At Cisco, we have been thinking through what connectivity looks like to the application developer and platform engineer. The cloud-native Network would connect all such service endpoints, and only those endpoints, wherever they happen to be and in whatever form – as modern cloud-native, or traditional monolithic systems.
