A Hands-On Introduction to the Kubernetes Gateway API with Apache APISIX

on YouTube ↗24m

" summary

Demonstrates Apache APISIX as a Kubernetes Ingress controller converting YAML Ingress and Gateway API resources into routes, using etcd for config storage and showing basic path-based routing, header and query-parameter routing, and path stripping via APISIX annotations which creates vendor lock-in. Uses Gateway API resources to express the same routing natively and notes Gateway API reaches v1.0 while APISIX currently lacks the URL rewrite filter implementation so that demo rewrite does not work. Mentions 20+ Ingress implementations.
