The goal of this blog post is to demonstrate how you can expose an OpenTelemetry (OTel) Collector running inside Kubernetes to the outside world securely, using the Kubernetes Gateway API and mutual TLS (mTLS) for authentication and encryption. As observability becomes increasingly critical in modern distributed systems, centralizing telemetry data via OTel Collectors deployed in one or many Kubernetes clusters is common practice. Often, services or agents running outside your Kubernetes clus...| OpenTelemetry
Kubernetes SIG Network is delighted to announce the general availability of Gateway API v1.2! This version of the API was released on October 3, and we're delighted to report that we now have a number of conformant implementations of it for you to try out. Gateway API v1.2 brings a number of new features to the Standard channel (Gateway API's GA release channel), introduces some new experimental features, and inaugurates our new release process — but it also brings two breaking changes that...| Kubernetes
This post will take you one step further from the hello-world configuration that I described in the first post by adding TLS end-to-end, a scenario described in the public docs here. This blog is p…| Cloudtrooper
In SIG Network we now have a layer 4 (“L4”) load balancer named Blixt. This project started as a fun experiment using emerging technologies and is intended to become a utility for CI and testing to help facilitate the continued development of Gateway API. Are you interested in developing networking tools in Rust and eBPF? Or perhaps you’re specifically interested in Gateway API? We’ll tell you a bit about the project and how it might benefit you.| www.kubernetes.dev
Recently, the Gateway API announced its v1.0 GA release, marking a huge milestone for the project. Along with stabilizing some of the core functionality in the API, a number of exciting new experimental features have been added. Backend TLS Policy BackendTLSPolicy is a new Gateway API type used for specifying the TLS configuration of the connection from the Gateway to backend Pods via the Service API object. It is specified as a Direct PolicyAttachment without defaults or overrides, applied t...| Kubernetes
