Testing cilium with k3d and kind

This post describes how to deploy cilium (and hubble) using docker on a Linux system with k3d or kind to test it as CNI and Service Mesh. I wrote some scripts to do a local installation and evaluate cilium to use it at work (in fact we are using cilium on an EKS cluster now), but I thought it would be a good idea to share my original scripts in this blog just in case they are useful to somebody, at least for playing a little with the technology. LinksAs there is no point on explaining here all the concepts related to cilium I’m providing some links for the reader interested on reading about it: What is CNI?What is Cilium?What is eBPF?What is Hubble?Why use Cilium with Kubernetes?...
