In the world of Kubernetes Ingress controllers, NGINX has had a very successful run. NGINX Ingress Controller is widely deployed for commercial Kubernetes production use cases while also being developed and maintained as an open source version. So, you might think that when a big improvement came to Kubernetes networking – the Gateway API – we’d keep a good thing going and implement it in our existing Ingress products.| NGINX Community Blog
[Note: This post was updated in November 2023 to rename the project from NGINX Kubernetes Gateway to NGINX Gateway Fabric.]| NGINX Community Blog
Over the last few years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has taken over the world by storm. The rapid growth of AI models and services has created a complex landscape where organizations are starting to combine multiple Large Language Model (LLM) providers and manage different model endpoints with varying API specifications to build their AI-powered applications. We are now witnessing the rise of AI gateways and LLM routers – specialized infrastructure components that sit between applications ...| NGINX Community Blog
The Kubernetes ecosystem is undergoing a significant transformation in how it handles networking, shifting from traditional Ingress API and annotations to the more advanced Gateway API. This change is driven by the growing complexity of modern applications and the need for more sophisticated traffic management. NGINX, a leader in application delivery, is at the forefront of this transition, offering both the F5 NGINX Ingress Controller (NIC) for current and future needs and F5 NGINX Gateway F...| NGINX Community Blog
Let’s continue our journey into Kubernetes networking and the F5 NGINX Ingress Controller.| NGINX Community Blog
We are very excited to announce the preview release of ACME support in NGINX. The implementation introduces a new module ngx_http_acme_module that provides built-in directives for requesting, installing, and renewing certificates directly from NGINX configuration. The ACME support leverages our NGINX-Rust SDK and is available as a Rust-based dynamic module for both NGINX Open Source users as well as enterprise NGINX One customers using NGINX Plus.| NGINX Community Blog
The Kubernetes landscape is dynamic, with the Ingress resource defining external traffic flow and the Ingress controller providing crucial routing and load balancing.| NGINX Community Blog
Imagine trying to build a modern web application but being constrained to use only the tools available a decade ago. This scenario has been a reality for many developers working with NGINX’s JavaScript module (njs), who have been limited by an ES5-based engine with only select ES6 extensions. While this constraint initially kept njs lightweight and focused, the growing complexity of server-side JavaScript requirements has highlighted the need for more modern language features and broader co...| NGINX Community Blog
At NGINX, we’re always looking for ways to help you deliver faster, more efficient web experiences. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce NGINX 1.29.0 mainline version with 103 Early Hints support, a feature that dramatically improves page load times by preloading assets before the main request is completed.| NGINX Community Blog
Every year, we at NGINX pause to do something incredibly important: We listen. From open source enthusiasts to enterprise customers, and from Platform Engineering professionals to DevOps engineers, your voices collectively shape the future of NGINX.| NGINX Community Blog
Imagine a busy highway during rush hour, where too many cars are trying to squeeze through limited lanes. This is similar to what happens in computer networks when too much data is sent simultaneously. Just like traffic jams, network congestion can significantly slow down data transmission. This is where congestion control comes into play.| NGINX Community Blog
The NGINX community is being asked for thoughts on the new Early Hints standard, which allows servers to send an informational response with the HTTP status code 103.| NGINX Community Blog
The Kubernetes world is experiencing a seismic shift as it moves from Ingress controllers to the shiny new Gateway API. While changing anything that works can be a challenge, it is beneficial for you to familiarize yourself with Gateway API.| NGINX Community Blog
