Contour, a CNCF incubating project, is a high performance ingress and load balancer solution for Kubernetes. The project, its roadmap, and the community have gone through several changes over the past few months and we’d like to give some updates. We will discuss the project and its health, new features added in recent releases, progress on Gateway API support, the project roadmap, and much more. We will also discuss the plans for the future of community building efforts and how you can help us make Contour the best that it can possibly be.

Download the code ahead of time. DCO required.Contour, a CNCF incubating project, is a high performance ingress and load balancer solution for Kubernetes. We are actively seeking more feedback in the areas of adding more advanced API Gateway features and onboarding new users and contributors so they are able to join the conversation and contribute to the project.For those new to the project we will provide a tour of the repository and help set up development environments to begin contributing on some existing issues of outstanding technical debt.For those that have some familiarity with Contour and API Gateways, we will spend time getting deeper in technical detail about how new features will be implemented and how they will fit together with Contour and its current capabilities.This Contribfest session is designed to provide projects with the space and resources to tackle outstanding technical debt, security issues, or outstanding impactful feature requests. They are intended to provide a place for maintainers to meet contributors and potential contributors and work together on solving a problem.

Contour, a CNCF incubating project, is a high performance ingress and load balancer solution for Kubernetes. Contour offers a richer feature set than some common alternatives while maintaining a lightweight profile. At its core, Contour is providing a control plane for the Envoy edge and service proxy. This session will show you how to leverage Contour and Envoy for Kubernetes workloads in a multi-tenant environment as well as include a demo of recent Contour features. We will also focus on the project roadmap including enhanced support for Gateway API, the Contour Operator for enhanced lifecycle management, distributed tracing support, and much more.Click here to view captioning/translation in the MeetingPlay platform!
