Two Challenges at Scale
Multitenancy (Teams)
How can multiple teams and
applications share a Container
environment safely and securely?
Complex Applications
How can you provide the
advanced capabilities that
complex applications require?

Ingress Controller

• Accepts traffic from outside the Kubernetes
platform, and load-balances it to pods
(containers) running inside the platform
• Configured using the Kubernetes API, with
objects called ‘Ingress Resources’
• Monitors the pods running in Kubernetes, and
automatically updates the load balancing rules if,
for example, pods are added or removed from a
service

NGINX
Ingress Resource
• Expose more NGINX/NGINX Plus
features e.g. TCP, GRPC load
balancing, traffic splitting, rate limits…
• Easy to use, familiar concepts, familiar
processes
• Cloud native -- support Prometheus,
Helm, OpenTracing, mTLS
• Special focus on security, stability and
self-service

Ingress Resource are limited to Basic SSL/TLS and
HTTP Load Balancing
Customized using Annotations and Config Maps
Annotations Problems:
− Can quickly grow biggerthan the spec
− Lack validation
− Not suited for granular configuration
− Not portable

Introduction of Custom Ressources
The VirtualServer and VirtualServerRoute resources
are new load balancingconfiguration,an alternative to
native Ingress Ressource
The resources enable use cases not supported with
the Ingress resource, such as traffic splitting,
advanced content-basedrouting,and more …

Full control over how NGINX IC
handles the request:
• Simply forward to an upstream
• Return a redirect
• Return a direct response
Rewrite, hide or ignore headers:
• Set custom headers from request
parameters
• Add debugging response headers
• Rewrite URLs
Control how each Request is Handled

14. | ©2021 F5
16
Apply sophisticated Routing
Implement smart routing:
• A|B testing and canary releases using splits
• Identify debug traffic and route to new, test instance
• Separate requestsby API method or version
• Perform Blue-Green Deployments
