Container Service for Kubernetes:Terway

Last Updated:Jan 20, 2026

Terway is an open source Container Network Interface (CNI) plug-in from Alibaba Cloud. It is built on a virtual private cloud (VPC) and supports standard Kubernetes network policies to define access policies between containers. You can use the Terway network component to enable network communication within Kubernetes clusters. This topic describes the Terway component, provides instructions, and lists its change history.

Introduction

The Terway network plug-in is a CNI plug-in developed by ACK. It builds networks based on Alibaba Cloud elastic network interfaces (ENIs) to fully utilize cloud resources. Terway supports eBPF to accelerate network traffic and reduce latency. It also supports standard Kubernetes network policies to define access policies between containers.

In the Terway network plug-in, each pod has its own network stack and IP address. Communication between pods on the same ECS instance is forwarded directly within the instance. Communication between pods on different ECS instances is forwarded directly through the ENIs of the VPC. Because Terway does not use tunneling technologies such as VxLAN to encapsulate messages, it provides high communication performance.
