Migration Between
Ingress and Gateway API

Why Download This Guide?
The need to migrate Kubernetes Ingress to the Gateway API is becoming a reality with the community version of NGINX Ingress going to retire. This eBook provides a clear, practical path for developers and platform engineers to modernize their networking stack with confidence.
You will get to know how to plan your Ingress migration, learn about NGINX modifications, and create a production-ready Gateway API configuration. The manual splits up the new model and the workings of Routes and Gateways, and demonstrates how to upgrade your current settings step-by-step.
Using this resource, you will be able to make networking easier, simplify annotations, and use a more scalable and future-proofing API to manage Kubernetes traffic.
