Cloud Native Theater | KubeVirt Summit: Bridging Islands: EVPN Overlays for Multi-C... Miguel Duarte

This talk covers the integration of OpenPERouter to address the challenges of providing seamless Layer 2 connectivity for KubeVirt virtualized applications across multiple clusters. The speaker discusses how EVPN-based VXLAN overlays solve critical needs for distributed L2 networking, enabling features such as transparent stretch between clusters and maintaining VM MAC/IP consistency during migrations and disaster recovery. Attendees will learn about implementing VRF-aware overlays for traffic segregation and direct routed ingress to VMs, along with actionable design patterns and configuration examples to create resilient, operationally safe networks using OpenPERouter.
