GLBC is a GCE L7 load balancer controller that manages external loadbalancers configured through the Kubernetes Ingress API.
Please read the beta limitations doc to before using this controller. In summary:
- This is a work in progress.
- It relies on a beta Kubernetes resource.
- The loadbalancer controller pod is not aware of your GCE quota.
If you are running a cluster on GKE and interested in trying out alpha releases of the GLBC before they are officially released please visit the deploy/glbc/ directory.
See here for high-level concepts on Ingress in Kubernetes.
For GCP-specific documentation, please visit here (core use-cases) and here (other cool features).
Please visit the changelog for both high-level release notes and a detailed changelog.
The table below describes what version of Ingress-GCE is running on GKE. Note that these versions are simply the defaults. Users still have the power to change the version manually if they want to (see deploy/).
