Into the Ingress-Verse: Expanding Kubernetes Networking Horizons with Gateway API

Tuesday, 5:00 PM EST - BEACH BREEZE

Kubernetes has revolutionized container orchestration, and with it comes the challenge of managing traffic into and out of clusters. While Ingress has been our go-to solution for external access, it has limitations, like only supporting L7 workloads and struggling with multi-cluster and multi-tenant scenarios.
That's where the Gateway API comes in! In this talk, Kong's principal developer advocate, Viktor Gamov, will dive into the world of Ingress management and show how the Gateway API is changing the game. We'll explore the API's versatility in handling HTTP services, gRPC applications, and non-L7 workloads like TCP/UDP. Get ready to discover advanced routing, enhanced load balancing, and multi-cluster support.
Join Viktor as we journey into the Ingress-Verse, expanding our networking horizons and stepping into a future where Kubernetes traffic management is more powerful and flexible.
