Cloud Native Global Load Balancer for Kubernetes

Explore the concept of cloud-native global load balancing for Kubernetes in this 32-minute conference talk by Yury Tsarev and Zak Anderson from Absa Group. Discover k8gb, an open-source solution that brings global server load balancing (GSLB) capabilities to Kubernetes environments. Learn how k8gb enables traffic distribution across geographically dispersed Kubernetes clusters using various load balancing strategies, addressing requirements such as region failover for high availability. Understand how this CNCF Sandbox project empowers operations and development teams to manage global load balancing for Kubernetes Services using familiar Kubernetes native approaches, eliminating the need for proprietary network software and hardware vendors.
