86 traffic engineering
In this section
- Build Your Traffic Engineering SkillCreate your traffic engineering skill in one prompt, then learn to improve it throughout the chapter
- JIT Chapter 86: Traffic EngineeringGateway API, Envoy Gateway, KEDA autoscaling, and Envoy AI Gateway for production traffic management
- Ingress FundamentalsUnderstand why Ingress exists, its limitations, and why Gateway API replaces it
- Traefik Ingress ControllerDeploy Traefik for simpler ingress before learning Gateway API complexity
- Gateway API - The New StandardLearn Gateway API as the Kubernetes standard replacing Ingress with role separation and portability
- Envoy Gateway SetupInstall and configure Envoy Gateway as production-grade Gateway API implementation
- Traffic Routing with HTTPRouteMaster HTTPRoute matching patterns for production traffic routing
- Rate Limiting & Circuit BreakingProtect services from abuse and cost overruns with BackendTrafficPolicy
- TLS Termination with CertManagerSecure traffic with TLS and automated certificate management
- Traffic Splitting PatternsImplement canary, blue-green, and A/B testing deployment patterns
- Autoscaling on Kubernetes: HPA, VPA, KEDA, and Cluster AutoscalerThe four independent autoscalers Kubernetes ships, when each one fires, and how they compose to take an AI Employee service from idle-at-zero to elastic-under-load without burning the cluster bill.
- Resilience PatternsProduction-grade resilience with retries, timeouts, PDB, and graceful shutdown
- Envoy AI Gateway for LLM TrafficAI-specific traffic management with token-based rate limiting and provider fallback
- Capstone: Production Traffic for Task APIIntegrate all traffic engineering patterns for production-ready Task API
Capstone: Full Observability Stack for Task API
Deploy complete observability with metrics, traces, logs, SLOs, alerts, and cost monitoring for production AI applications
