Description

Optimize and simplify the management of Kubernetes (north-south) network traffic to ensure reliable, consistent performance at scale, all while maintaining the speed of your applications. Employ advanced application-centric configurations by utilizing role-based access control (RBAC) alongside self-service options to establish security guardrails, allowing your teams to manage their applications with both security and agility. This approach fosters multi-tenancy and reusability while offering simpler configurations and additional benefits. With a native, type-safe, and indented configuration style, you can streamline functionalities such as circuit breaking, advanced routing, header manipulation, mTLS authentication, and WAF. Furthermore, if you're currently utilizing NGINX, the NGINX Ingress resources facilitate a seamless transition of your existing configurations from other environments, enhancing your overall operational efficiency. This not only simplifies your network management but also empowers your development teams to innovate faster.

Description

Both developers and cluster administrators benefit from a uniform experience and a consistent set of features, whether operating in public clouds or on-premises, on a single node, or across extensive multi-node clusters. Additionally, Calico offers flexibility in data planes, featuring options like a pure Linux eBPF data plane, a conventional Linux networking data plane, and a Windows HNS data plane.
