I agree. The team at Isovalent is extraordinary and should continue to be strong champions of BPF for network and security use cases. With Cisco footing the bill, I think we will see even more expansion into XDP traffic processing that is native to hardware vs. the current overlay model.

First Splunk, now Isovalent. Cisco has been busy this year!

That won’t stop a bunch of them from being laid off like what happened during the Splunk acquisition.

Those products are at very different maturity points, wrt to continued commercial adoption, aka revenue gen.
