Lightning Talk: Make Way for the Gateway - Christine Kim, Google

The Kubernetes Gateway API has graduated to beta! As the successor to the Ingress API, the Gateway API has been created with the goal of having the superset of abilities previously provided - with more. The legacy ingress in Kubernetes has been limiting in the past, so what does this mean for someone who has grown comfortable using Istio’s Ingress? Will you have to learn something new again? Have no fear - we’ll go through a quick run down on the similarities and differences of Istio’s Ingress Gateway and the new Gateway API, and see a simple demo on how to use the Gateway API. We’ll mainly focus on the 3 main APIs (GatewayClass, Gateway, HTTPRoute), and see how the setup enables role oriented behavior and work towards having better DevOps practices.
