Ambassador – Kubernetes-native microservices API gateway

Envoy + some neat features: very nice. Looks to be much broader than just an API gateway. I was disappointed that Envoy didn't have static hosting built in like nginx, but perhaps Ambassador will add it. (It's not that difficult to reverse-proxy to a decent static server, but it would still be nice)

The datawire folks put on some good conferences. It bothers me that their thing, which is deployed at the edge of the network, is named the same as a famous pattern that involves service colocation[1].

I kind of hope their thing never catches on so I don't have to untangle which one people are referring to. Although sidecar seems to have taken off in the kube context. So maybe I'm all set.

I’ve been using it for the last few months, solid, easy to setup, and just works.

This is cool. Not much else to say. I'm excited to give it a go this weekend.
