Contour, A High Performance Multitenant Ingress Controller for Kubernetes
Talkat KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2020 Virtual · on Wednesday, 2020-11-18· at 15:00· Intrado Virtual Event Platform,·
summary
Contour acts as a control plane for Envoy, providing a high performance multitenant Kubernetes ingress that streams xDS updates without reloads. Recent work ships v1.10, adds TLS (Let’s Encrypt via cert-manager), and demoed external authorization using an in-cluster htpasswd service bound via an extension service CRD so Envoy forwards auth checks before routing. Roadmap includes xDS v3, a contour operator and Helm chart, rate limiting hooks, and Service API support; project shows ~2,500 GitHub stars, 430 contributors and 55 releases.
