Exposing gRPC With Confidence - A Kubernetes-First API Gateway Approach

Learn how to confidently expose gRPC services to external consumers using a Kubernetes-native API management gateway that leverages Envoy Proxy and the Kubernetes Gateway API standard in this 21-minute conference talk. Discover how to overcome the challenges of extending gRPC APIs beyond cluster boundaries, including secure exposure, intelligent routing, and protocol translation. Explore real-world deployment strategies for publishing gRPC APIs at the edge while enriching them with essential Quality-of-Service capabilities such as authentication, traffic rate limiting, retry strategies, and dynamic policy enforcement. Gain insights into creating robust, secure, and manageable external access to your gRPC workloads through practical examples and implementation approaches that address the complexities of modern cloud-native API management.
