Why Edge Stack, the Kubernetes API Gateway?
Security and Performance
Equipped with a full-featured Web Application Firewall (WAF) to help prevent and mitigate many common attacks, Edge Stack also authenticates incoming traffic before routing it.
Resilience at Scale
As a Kubernetes-native API Gateway, Edge Stack has a centralized database to manage configurations, enhancing scalability and reducing the risk of a single point of failure.
Developer Productivity
Built-in declarative workflows for multi-team environments and self-serve options to publish, monitor, and update services empower developers and reduce operations’ loads.

Mastering Your Microservices & API Development
Edge Stack plays an important role throughout the entire microservices lifecycle and can improve your organization's design, development, testing, deployment, and observability activities.
Security and Authentication at the Edge
Edge Stack, the Kubernetes API Gateway, makes securing microservices easy with a comprehensive set of advanced functionality.
- Automatic Transport Layer Security (TLS)
- Advanced authentication: OAuth2, OIDC, JWT, Single Sign On, and more
- Rate Limiting
- Fine-grained Access Control: IP Allow/Deny Listing
- Built-in WAF capability
A Kubernetes Ingress Controller
Routing user requests into your Kubernetes cluster requires a modern traffic management solution. Edge Stack API Gateway provides a robust Kubernetes Ingress Controller that supports a wide range of protocols and provides reliability and resilience features to protect your backend services.
- Support for TCP, HTTP/1/2/3, and gRPC Protocols
- TLS and mTLS Termination
- Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
- Integration with Open API Standards
- Advanced Load Balancing: Timeouts, Retries, and Circuit-breaking
- Progressive Delivery and Continuous Delivery
Optimized for Self-Service
Edge Stack API Gateway empowers development teams to safely manage their ingress, using the same workflows they already use with K8s. Declarative workflows enable decentralized policy management and API teams can publish, monitor and update services independently.
- Configure using K8s Custom Resource Definitions (CRD)
- Operator-focused CRDs (host, listener, & security configuration)
- Developer-focused CRDs (mappings & rate limiting configuration)
- Protocol support, including:
- TCP, HTTP/1, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, and gRPC & gRPC-Web
- Zero-downtime reconfiguration
- Integrate with existing GitOps / Kubernetes Workflows
- Establishes a Dev Portal to Centralize Resources and Tools
