NGINX on Kubernetes, All The Details

🙌 My next course is coming soon! I've opened the waitlist for those wanting to go deep in GitHub Actions for DevOps and AI automation in 2025. I'm so thrilled to announce this course. The waitlist allows you to quickly sign up for some content updates, discounts, and more as I finish building the course. https://learn.bretfisher.com/waitlist🍾Bret is joined by two pros from the NGINX team, Robert Haynes and Brian Ehlert to break down the various use cases of NGINX on Kubernetes, and help you decide when and where you'll be using it.There's a lot going on around NGINX and I wanted to focus this conversation around NGINX on Kubernetes, and specifically the two ways you can run it for cluster ingress. We also get into some of the advanced scenarios of using NGINX, like caching and web application firewalls (WAF).Many of us are using NGINX somewhere in our clusters. I found it very interesting how Robert, Brian, and the team at F5 spend a lot of time showing customers how they can use it in many ways to avoid deploying additional products on their clusters. I'm a big fan of reducing complexity.Streamed live on YouTube on December 15, 2022.Unedited live recording of this show on YouTube (Ep. #195).★Topics★Intro to K8s networkingK8s + NGINXThe basic Kubernetes Ingress provider of NGINXThe official NGINX team Ingress CRD (more features)Gateway API for K8sMonitoring NGINXMonitoring NGINX with Prometheus★Brian Ehlert★Brian Ehlert on Twitter★Robert Haynes★Robert Haynes on Twitter★Join my Community★New live course on CI automation and gitops deploymentsBest coupons for my Docker and Kubernetes coursesChat with us and fellow students on our Discord Server DevOps FansGrab some merch at Bret's Loot BoxHomepage bretfisher.com (00:00) - DDT MAIN (00:04) - Intro (02:30) - Custom intro (04:18) - Main show (04:23) - Introductions (04:42) - Today's topic (05:17) - Question: Common NGINX use cases (06:58) - NGINX's web server capabilities (07:48) - Common NGINX on Kubernetes considerations (11:05) - API gateway vs ingress (15:49) - Ingress configurations and policies (18:12) - CRD with ingress project (21:29) - When people adopt Kubernetes (24:10) - Free vs Paid version (28:54) - Question (29:04) - Last-minute risky annotations (33:29) - Validating NGINX configs (36:21) - Avoiding NGINX config manipulation (41:23) - Questions (42:37) - Monitoring in NGINX (44:09) - Prometheus exporter (45:36) - Question about caching (51:16) - Question (52:58) - Wrapping up (55:42) - Outro You can also support my free material by subscribing to my YouTube channel and my weekly newsletter at bret.news!Grab the best coupons for my Docker and Kubernetes courses.Join my cloud native DevOps community on Discord.Grab some merch at Bret's Loot BoxHomepage bretfisher.com
