Cilium 1.0.0-rc9 - Feature Freeze for 1.0!
We are excited to announce Cilium 1.0.0-rc9 with many, many bugfixes and the delivery of the final feature we were waiting on prior for 1.0: Egress policy enforcement support. It is therefore only logical that we announce full feature freeze with rc9. This means that we will only merge critical bugfixes and release 1.0 as soon as we have resolved all release blockers. More on this below. We are thrilled to have come this far and appreciate all of the efforts by the wide range of contributors that have helped to get us here. As usual, the full release notes are attached at the end of the blog but can be found on the 1.0.0-rc9 release page. The vast majority of the work in this release has been around bugfixes and testing. Here is a list of some highlights:

Connectivity Troubleshooting with cilium-health
As we approach the upcoming 1.0 release, the Cilium community has been putting a lot of effort towards monitoring and troubleshooting. This has led to the development of several new tools in the project which we'll explore in this blog series. In this first part, we will cover **cilium-health**, a tool for troubleshooting intra-cluster connectivity issues.`

Cilium 1.0.0-rc2 - gRPC, Kafka and much more

What Cilium and BPF will bring to Istio
There is a lot of excitement around Istio this week at KubeCon. We are getting pinged multiple times a day now with questions on how exactly Cilium and Istio relate to each other. Istio abstracts away a lot of networking specific complexity and provides visibility and control to application teams. We couldn't agree more with the moving networking to Layer 7 and provide the necessary instruments for efficient operation at the layer where it makes sense:the application protocol. This blog post serves to answer a simple question:How is Istio related to Cilium? Can I use both together? Will one benefit from the other?
