If you follow the K8s world, you have probably heard that the Gateway API has been released as beta this past summer!
As a superset of the Ingress API, the Gateway API provides a lot of power to teams, by letting non-admin folks get non-admin tasks completed.
If you wanted to try out the Gateway API, but weren't sure where to start, I created a simple and easy demo that walks through 3 common use cases, and you can see how simple it is!
The steps are outlined on my repo here.
A rough overview is that you will deploy a sample application httpbin, and create a Gateway with the Istio Gateway Controller.
Then you can try out 3 scenarios:
- Adding a new route to your
HTTPRoute - Traffic shifting between v1 and v2 of your application
- Trying a new Gateway! (this one is my personal fave)
Try it out, and leave any questions that you might have here! :)
