Kong/kubernetes-ingress-controller

Features

• Ingress Controllers - Directs external HTTP, TCP, and gRPC traffic to internal cluster services using standard infrastructure definitions and routing rules.
• Gateway API Traffic Configurations - Configures cluster networking using standard gateway resources to manage HTTP, TCP, and gRPC traffic flows.
• API Gateway Control Planes - Coordinates traffic routing and access control policies across a distributed network of gateway instances.
• Declarative Infrastructure Management - Manages gateway configurations through version-controlled manifest files to ensure a consistent and reproducible network state.
• Traffic Management Gateways - Applies security, rate-limiting, and request transformation policies to network traffic flowing into the service architecture.
• Traffic Routing - Directs incoming HTTP, TCP, and gRPC traffic to cluster services using standard infrastructure definitions and routing rules.
• API Gateway Security - Acts as a platform for managing traffic, enforcing security policies, and applying rate limits to services within a distributed network.
• Request Path Rewriters - Provides dynamic modification of incoming request paths to align with internal application requirements and expected endpoint structures.
• Cloud Native Service Managers - Registers and balances traffic across backend service replicas while performing health checks to ensure high availability.
• Declarative Infrastructure Reconciliation - Continuously monitors and enforces desired network states by comparing current gateway configurations against version-controlled definitions.
• Gateway High Availability - Ensures high availability and performance by automating the deployment of multiple gateway replicas.
• Infrastructure as Code Tools - Enables the definition and synchronization of network gateway settings through version-controlled manifest files for consistent cluster state.
• Declarative Configuration Management - Defines infrastructure settings and traffic policies using version-controlled manifest files.
• Kubernetes Controllers - Uses Kubernetes reconciliation loops to maintain gateway configuration state based on cluster manifest definitions.
• Gateway Node Orchestrators - Orchestrates multiple gateway nodes to synchronize settings and operations across distributed environments.
• Middleware-Based Request Pipelines - Provides a modular chain of pluggable components to intercept, modify, and process network requests.
• Dynamic Service Discovery - Maps logical service names to physical network addresses in real-time to maintain updated backend targets.
• Request Matching Rule Definitions - Directs incoming traffic to specific upstream services by evaluating URL patterns and protocol-specific routing rules.
• Health-Checked Routers - Distributes traffic across service replicas while performing health checks to ensure only operational endpoints receive requests.
• TLS Certificate Management - Automates the provisioning and management of TLS certificates to secure communication channels.
• Identity and Access Management - Tracks client identities and enforces access control policies based on unique credentials or tokens during the request lifecycle.
• API Request Authentication - Validates API requests using tokens to track client identities and enforce access controls.
• Traffic Security Policies - Enforces authentication, transformation, and rate-limiting rules on specific network flows.
• Request-Response Logic Extenders - Injects custom logic into the request-response lifecycle to manipulate data or traffic flow.
• Upstream Service Registrations - Registers backend applications as services to receive and process incoming network traffic.
• Networking - Ingress controller based on the Kong API gateway.
• Load Balancing and Ingress - Deploy Kong as a native Kubernetes Ingress Controller.
