How We Migrated a Production Cluster from Ingress NGINX to Gateway API
A real-world account of migrating a production Kubernetes cluster from ingress-nginx to Gateway API using kgateway. Covers why kgateway was chosen over alternatives (Envoy Gateway, Cilium, Traefik, nginx Gateway Fabric), how to use the ingress2gateway translation tool, and how to achieve zero-downtime cutover via weighted DNS with external-dns. Also details behavioral differences to expect: WebSocket upgrade requirements, upstream connection pooling issues, and rate limiting differences. Includes operational lessons around ArgoCD sync ordering, cert-manager namespace topology, and running the controller at multiple replicas.
