Project Lightning Talk: A Deep Dive into Cilium Gateway API: The Future of Ingress Traffic Routing
In the cloud-native era, the traffic routing and secure access of microservices architecture have gone beyond the traditional Kubernetes Ingress API. Cloud-native solutions provide more flexible, scalable, and secure ways to manage traffic both inside and outside the cluster.
For example, Service Mesh technologies like Istio and Linkerd provide rich traffic management features, including dynamic routing, circuit breaking, retries, timeouts, and more. They also have built-in secure service-to-service authentication and encrypted communication, significantly improving the overall system security.
Additionally, modern API gateways like Cilium can seamlessly integrate with Kubernetes, providing more fine-grained routing rules, load balancing, monitoring, and other functionalities. They can serve as the unified entry point for the cluster, simplifying the management of external access.
在云原生时代，微服务架构的流量路由和安全访问已经超越了传统的 Kubernetes Ingress API。云原生解决方案提供了更灵活、可扩展和安全的方式来管理集群内外的流量。
例如，像 Istio 和 Linkerd 这样的服务网格技术提供了丰富的流量管理功能，包括动态路由、熔断、重试、超时等。它们还内置了安全的服务间身份验证和加密通信，大大提高了系统的整体安全性。
此外，像 Cilium 这样的现代 API 网关可以无缝集成 Kubernetes，提供更细粒度的路由规则、负载均衡、监控等功能。它们可以作为集群的统一入口点，简化外部访问的管理。
