### Calico
[Calico](https://docs.projectcalico.org/) is an open source networking and network security solution for containers, virtual machines, and native host-based workloads. Calico supports multiple data planes including: a pure Linux eBPF dataplane, a standard Linux networking dataplane, and a Windows HNS dataplane. Calico provides a full networking stack but can also be used in conjunction with [cloud provider CNIs](https://docs.projectcalico.org/networking/determine-best-networking#calico-compatible-cni-plugins-and-cloud-provider-integrations) to provide network policy enforcement.

### Project Calico
[Project Calico](https://docs.projectcalico.org/) is an open source container networking provider and network policy engine.
Calico provides a highly scalable networking and network policy solution for connecting Kubernetes pods based on the same IP networking principles as the internet, for both Linux (open source) and Windows (proprietary - available from [Tigera](https://www.tigera.io/essentials/)). Calico can be deployed without encapsulation or overlays to provide high-performance, high-scale data center networking. Calico also provides fine-grained, intent based network security policy for Kubernetes pods via its distributed firewall.
Calico can also be run in policy enforcement mode in conjunction with other networking solutions such as Flannel, aka [canal](https://github.com/tigera/canal), or native GCE, AWS or Azure networking.
### Romana
[Romana](https://romana.io) is an open source network and security automation solution that lets you deploy Kubernetes without an overlay network. Romana supports Kubernetes [Network Policy](/docs/concepts/services-networking/network-policies/) to provide isolation across network namespaces.
