Kubernetes Multi-Cluster Made Easy - Federica Ciuffo and Marco Ballerini

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Demonstrates using AWS VPC Lattice plus a custom Gateway API + MCS controller to expose and import Kubernetes services across clusters and VPCs without layer‑3 peering. Builds a demo where the backend pod is deleted in cluster A and traffic instantly shifts to cluster B via an LTIS URL; 100% then 50/50 routing is applied, with integrated logging, gRPC support, optional mTLS, IAM-based access control, cross‑account capability, and routes to Lambda/EC2 as needed.
