Play the recording: Gateway API: Table Stakes

  • Why: A maintainer-level status check on Gateway API as the converging standard for ingress, routing, and mesh — useful for tracking the direction of the API the PM's mesh/ingress choices now depend on.
  • What: A consolidated update on Gateway API's maturity as a core cloud-native building block. (from abstract only)
  • How: Maintainers from the three main vendor contributors review where the API and its conformance stand. (from abstract only)
  • Where applicable: Anyone standardizing on Gateway API; general standards-direction content.
