Multus CNI


 This week, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) announced to support the Multus Container Networking Interface (CNI) plugin, enabling pods running in EKS clusters to attach multiple network interfaces in support of advanced networking configurations.

Multus CNI is a container network interface (CNI) plugin for Kubernetes that enables attaching multiple network interfaces to pods. Typically, in Kubernetes each pod only has one network interface (apart from a loopback) -- with Multus you can create a multi-homed pod that has multiple interfaces. This is accomplished by Multus acting as a "meta-plugin", a CNI plugin that can call multiple other CNI plugins.

Amazon EKS provides a highly available managed Kubernetes service that is available in all global AWS regions, and supported in edge locations like AWS Local Zones and AWS Outposts. Using Multus with EKS enables advanced networking across these environments to run containerized network functions that deliver high quality content to end users.
