Migrating from Ingress to Kubernetes Gateway API | Demo | Nginx Ingress | Istio Ingress

Watch the video to see the migration from Nginx Ingress to Kubernetes Gateway API CRDs using Istio Ingress, with weighted traffic distribution.

Gateway API CRDs have broader capabilities than the Kubernetes Ingress resource. The Gateway resource from Gateway API allows traffic to enter the cluster. The HTTPRoute resource helps to route incoming traffic and apply matches, filters, etc.

In the demo, you’ll see a sample banking application deployed in the cluster. It uses Ingress to route traffic to respective services, with the help of Nginx Ingress controller. We’ll deploy Gateway API CRDs, i.e., Gateway and HTTPRoute resources — and gradually implement them using Istio Ingress with weighted traffic distribution.

Apart from the demo, we’ll briefly go through The 3 R’s migration strategy to seamlessly switch from Ingress to Kubernetes Gateway API. You’ll also see how to map Ingress configuration to respective Gateway API CRDs.
