What You Need to Know about the Kubernetes Gateway API
Briefly

The Kubernetes Ingress resource allows external requests to access services within Kubernetes clusters, but it faces limitations with routing complexity and vendor-specific annotations. This has made maintenance cumbersome, particularly for teams working on shared Ingress resources. The Kubernetes Gateway API provides a vendor-neutral solution, addressing the standardization issues of Ingress by enabling more sophisticated routing capabilities without the complications of proprietary configurations. The Gateway API serves as a 'next-generation Ingress,' making advanced functionality accessible right out of the box.
The Kubernetes Gateway API addresses the lack of standardization with Ingress and the proliferation of vendor-specific annotations, making Ingress challenging to maintain.
Native Ingress is widely used but limited to basic routing capabilities, as it depends on the path and host specified in the request.
