Kubernetes Gateway API

Dynamic infrastructure provisioning and advanced traffic routing.

Role-oriented (RBAC-based): Gateway API kinds are modeled after organizational roles::

• Infrastructure Provider:
  Hypervisor Dev/Ops/Admin
• Cluster Operator:
  Cluster Dev/Ops/Admin
• Application Developer:
  App Dev/Ops/Admin

Gateway API kinds

1. GatewayClass: Defines a set of gateways with common configuration and managed by a controller that implements the class.

2. Gateway: Defines an instance of traffic handling infrastructure, such as cloud load balancer.

3. HTTPRoute: Defines HTTP-specific rules for mapping traffic from a Gateway listener to a representation of backend network endpoints. These endpoints are often represented as a Service.
