The Cilium Certified Associate (CCA) examination focuses on the foundational aspects of Cilium, an open-source project dedicated to advancing networking and security for containerized applications and micro-services within contemporary cloud-native ecosystems, especially Kubernetes-based ones.
Utilizing the advanced eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) technology, which acts as a highly efficient execution engine within the kernel, Cilium provides superior networking and security features. Achieving CCA certification validates an individual's core understanding of how to integrate, secure, and monitor Kubernetes clusters through Cilium.
