The Kubernetes networking community is facing a critical transition as the Ingress-NGINX controller heads towards retirement in March 2026. For teams accustomed to this standard, the shift to the new Gateway API presents a necessary challenge. Now, organizations are assessing how to navigate this migration effectively.
In response to this impending change, the release of Ingress2Gateway 1.0 provides a solution. This tool assists users in translating existing Ingress resources into the Gateway API format. Its main function is to ease this monumental migration, ensuring that valuable configurations from Ingress-NGINX are carried over safely.
The 1.0 release includes support for over 30 common Ingress-NGINX annotations, significantly increasing its practical utility. Extensive integration tests back this release, comparing the behavior of Ingress-NGINX configurations with their Gateway API equivalents. This will help teams avoid unexpected issues pitfalls during the migration process.
As organizations move forward, they must prepare for the unique considerations tied to the new Gateway API. Ingress2Gateway serves as a valuable resource to ensure that this transition is not only feasible but efficient, promising better alignment with Kubernetes-native RBAC and a more modular design.
