Sharing experiences and learning from other users is essential. We are frequently asked who is using a particular feature of Cilium so people can get in contact with other users to share experiences and best practices. People also often want to know if product/platform X has integrated Cilium. While the Cilium Slack community allows users to get in touch, it can be challenging to find this information quickly.
The following is a directory of adopters to help identify users of individual features. The users themselves directly maintain the list.
If you are using Cilium or it is integrated into your product, service, or platform, please consider adding yourself as a user with a quick description of your use case by opening a pull request to this file and adding a section describing your usage of Cilium. If you are open to others contacting you about your use of Cilium on Slack, add your Slack nickname as well.
