Kubernetes Gateway API: Role-based Configuration of Ingress

by Nigel Brown

Configuring external access to apps running in Kubernetes often requires agreement between teams with different vested interests. This course will teach you how to use multiple roles to securely configure the Gateway API for ingress purposes.

What you'll learn

When it comes to setting up ingress traffic to applications in Kubernetes, there are often multiple stakeholders involved. In this course, Kubernetes Gateway API: Role-based Configuration of Ingress, you'll learn how to use the Gateway API to implement role-based ingress configuration. First, you'll get to grips with the different roles that the Gateway API introduces for ingress purposes. Next, you'll discover how to configure different Gateway API objects according to the role associated with it. Finally, you’ll learn how to securely attach routes to gateways across separate namespaces designated for different roles. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the knowledge necessary to implement end-to-end ingress for Kubernetes applications, using multiple personas, with the Gateway API.
