The Container networking interface (CNI) project makes it really simple for container orchestrators to configure networking for containers. In this presentation, Anirudh Aithal will provide a detailed walkthrough of developing a plugin, from prototyping to integrating with orchestration frameworks such as Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (EKS). We’ll start with a brief introduction of CNI project and plugins. We will also review how CNI plugins enabled us to iterate fast on enabling cloud-native networking capabilities for containers such as routable IPs, network ACLs, firewall rules by provisioning elastic network interfaces on a per-container basis, without modifications to the orchestration framework itself. We will also review the best practices for developing a plugin including testing, logging, versioning and operationalizing the same.
