How Do I Choose? API Gateway vs. Ingress Controller vs. Service Mesh
When you need an API gateway in Kubernetes, how do you choose among API gateway vs. Ingress controller vs. service mesh? We guide you through the decision, with sample scenarios for north-south and east-west API traffic, plus use cases where an API gateway is the right tool.
Demoing NGINX at Sprint 2.0 – From Blast Off to Stable Orbit
Preview the seven demos presented by the NGINX team on August 24 at NGINX Sprint 2021, our annual virtual event. We show how NGINX solutions accelerate just about every step in your app development journey, from deploying the first reverse proxy to launching a service mesh.
Easier Deployment and Upgrade of NGINX Service Mesh
NGINX Service Mesh Release 1.1.0 introduces three key enhancements that make it easier to deploy and manage our production-ready service mesh in Kubernetes: Helm support, air-gap installation, and in-place upgrades.
How to Simplify Kubernetes Ingress and Egress Traffic Management
A service mesh can make a Kubernetes environment more complicated if it must be configured separately from the Ingress controller. In this demo and blog we show how to integrate NGINX Plus Ingress Controller with NGINX Service Mesh to control both ingress and egress mTLS traffic.
How to Use NGINX Service Mesh for Secure Access Control
If services in a Kubernetes environment exchange sensitive data, it's important to control communication among them. With NGINX Service Mesh, it takes less than 10 minutes to set up fine‑grained control. Watch the video demo and check out our step-by-step tutorial.
How to Use NGINX Service Mesh for Traffic Splitting
Traffic splitting is a valuable tool for app development, reducing the risk of outages during app upgrades. With NGINX Service Mesh, it takes less than 10 minutes to implement blue-green and canary deployments. Watch the video demo and check out our step-by-step tutorials.
How to Use NGINX Service Mesh for Rate Limiting
High request volume can overwhelm your Kubernetes services. With NGINX Service Mesh, it takes less than 10 minutes to define a rate-limiting policy that limits each client to a reasonable number of requests. Watch the video demo and follow along in the transcript provided.
How to Choose a Service Mesh
NGINX Service Mesh is officially production-ready! NGINX Service Mesh is free, optimized for developers, and the lightest, easiest way to implement mTLS and end-to-end encryption in Kubernetes for both ingress-egress and and service-to-service traffic.
The mTLS Architecture in NGINX Service Mesh
Service-to-service communication among microservices puts more data on the wire compared to monoliths. Using mutual TLS (mTLS) to encrypt and authenticate that communication is crucial. Here we dive deep into the mTLS implementation in NGINX Service Mesh.
