Red Hat OpenShift and Isovalent Enterprise Platform: Accelerating secure hybrid application delivery
A unified platform for secure, high-performance application delivery across hybrid cloud environments, powered by eBPF-based networking, security, and observability.
Isovalent Networking for Kubernetes: A Unified Layer for Hybrid Cloud Connectivity
Modern cloud-native environments face increasing complexity as organizations scale Kubernetes across hybrid and multi-cluster architectures.
Key challenges include:
- Fragmented connectivity across disparate network topologies within cloud-native platforms
- Difficulty consistently implementing zero trust security models using network policies and encryption
- Lack of seamless, secure connectivity across distributed multi-cluster environments
- Limitations of traditional service mesh architectures, particularly sidecar-based models that add operational overhead and latency
- Insufficient observability and identity-aware policy enforcement across dynamic workloads
Isovalent Networking for Kubernetes delivers a unified networking and security layer purpose-built for modern cloud-native infrastructure on Red Hat OpenShift.
By leveraging an eBPF-based dataplane, it replaces traditional SDN approaches with a high-performance, identity-aware architecture that treats VMs and containers as first-class citizens.
Key capabilities include:
- Consistent enforcement of zero trust security through identity-based network policies and transparent encryption
- Seamless, secure connectivity across multi-cluster and hybrid environments
- Sidecar-free service mesh capabilities that reduce complexity and improve performance
- Deep, real-time observability powered by Hubble for complete visibility into service-to-service communication
- A unified networking foundation that improves scalability, security posture, and operational simplicity across clusters
