Envoy Gateway is revolutionizing edge traffic management for cloud-native applications. It efficiently manages Envoy-based application gateways and extends Kubernetes Gateway API functionalities through custom resource definitions (CRDs). This presentation will delve into Envoy Gateway's API extensions: ClientTrafficPolicy, BackendTrafficPolicy, SecurityPolicy, and EnvoyExtensionPolicy. We'll explore their practical applications in managing and securing edge traffic, showcasing advanced features like JWT authorization, rate limiting, OIDC integration, external processing, and WASM plugins. Attendees will gain hands-on knowledge to implement these cutting-edge capabilities, staying ahead of Gateway API advancements. Join us to learn how Envoy Gateway is shaping the future of cloud-native networking and how you can leverage its power in your infrastructure today.
