Gateway API 是 Ingress 资源的演进，重构了 Kubernetes 中处理互联的方式。在这篇文章中，我们讨论了为什么我们选择建构 NGINX Gateway Fabric 这一全新实现，而非在已有的 NGINX Ingress Controller 的基础上添加 Gateway API 规范。

如果部署和配置得当，Ingress controller 能够从根本上简化 Kubernetes 集群的操作，同时增强安全防护并提高性能和弹性，可成为您软件栈中的强大工具。‌

你是否需要 Ingress controller 来接收 Kubernetes 环境的流量？为了帮助你回答这个问题，本文提供了关于除了 Ingress controller 以外的其他类型 service 的基础知识，包括 kube-proxy、Cluster IP、NodePort 和 LoadBalancer。

最近 NGINX Ingress Controller 的版本数从 1.x 跳到了 2.x，标志着与 Kubernetes API version 1（于 Kubernetes 1.22 中发布）的兼容。了解为什么这事关重大，以及如何在版本变更的情况下确保你的 Kubernetes 应用平稳运行。

NGINX Controller makes app deployments safer and more scalable by ensuring that all functional components and associated certificates are configured correctly and consistently. Learn how its configuration object model ensures that changes don't harm availability or performance.

We introduce the beta version of the NGINX Controller Data Forwarder, with an integration for Splunk. You create a single configuration in one place to capture enhanced data from all of your NGINX Plus instances and feed it to the monitoring infrastructure you've already invested in.

We show how to automate the promotion of a development environment to production using the Red Hat Ansible collection for NGINX Controller. In the accompanying video, we use all roles in the collection, plus sample playbooks and Ansible Tower workflows.
