CVS to SVN migration is something a lot of people have done.  Subversion was written because of inadequacies in CVS, so it's a pretty standard process.

I've already explained why you might want Bamboo and Subversion integrated.

You don't need to integrate it, but you probably want to.  Start with the absolute basics

Bamboo is a build server at its heart.  It exists to build software from code (although a lot of us do a lot more than just build the software), automatically, so that your developers are not spending ages doing their own builds in potentially non-standard ways.

Subversion is a source control system that you keep your code in.

So, "why you need to integrate them" is basically because you generally want to set up Bamboo to build code that is kept in Subversion.

I suspect there is more to your question, but once you understand the "why", you need to decide if that's what you want to do and then see how you can set it up.
