kubernetes-sigs/aws-load-balancer-controller

This project is a Kubernetes ingress controller that manages external traffic by dynamically configuring the HAProxy load balancer. It functions as a bridge between cluster resources and the network data plane, translating high-level ingress definitions into active proxy configurations to route HTTP, TCP, and UDP traffic into containerized environments. The controller distinguishes itself through a decoupled architecture that separates control plane logic from the proxy process, allowing for independent lifecycle management and versioning. It utilizes template-based configuration generation a

Higress is an AI API gateway and cloud-native traffic manager that functions as a Kubernetes ingress controller. It provides a centralized system for routing, securing, and optimizing traffic directed toward large language models, AI agents, and microservice architectures. The project distinguishes itself through deep AI orchestration, including the ability to host and manage Model Context Protocol servers that transform REST APIs into tools for AI agents. It features specialized AI infrastructure for model request proxying, protocol translation across multiple providers, and semantic-based c

The Operator SDK is a framework for building, packaging, and managing custom controllers that extend the Kubernetes API. It serves as a toolset for defining new API types and implementing reconcile loops to automate the lifecycles of complex applications. The project provides specialized support for creating operators based on Helm charts or Ansible playbooks, allowing users to maintain a desired cluster state using existing automation tools. It includes a dedicated system for packaging controllers into standardized container image bundles for distribution via the Operator Lifecycle Manager.

VictoriaMetrics is a high-performance, scalable time series database and observability platform designed for long-term storage and analysis of metric, log, and trace data. It functions as a unified backend for monitoring ecosystems, offering full compatibility with industry-standard protocols and query languages. The system is built to handle massive data volumes through a distributed architecture that supports horizontal scaling and efficient data lifecycle management. The platform distinguishes itself through a storage engine that utilizes consistent hashing for data sharding and log-struct
