Description

The Knox API Gateway functions as a reverse proxy, prioritizing flexibility in policy enforcement and backend service management for the requests it handles. It encompasses various aspects of policy enforcement, including authentication, federation, authorization, auditing, dispatch, host mapping, and content rewriting rules. A chain of providers, specified in the topology deployment descriptor associated with each Apache Hadoop cluster secured by Knox, facilitates this policy enforcement. Additionally, the cluster definition within the descriptor helps the Knox Gateway understand the structure of the cluster, enabling effective routing and translation from user-facing URLs to the internal workings of the cluster. Each secured Apache Hadoop cluster is equipped with its own REST APIs, consolidated under a unique application context path. Consequently, the Knox Gateway can safeguard numerous clusters while offering REST API consumers a unified endpoint for seamless access. This design enhances both security and usability by simplifying interactions with multiple backend services.

Description

kgateway is a widely deployed Kubernetes gateway designed to power modern microservices and AI-driven workloads. It serves as a control plane for advanced ingress, API management, and AI gateway use cases. Built on Envoy and open-source foundations, kgateway implements the Kubernetes Gateway API for consistent, cloud-native connectivity. The platform aggregates APIs and applies authentication, authorization, and rate limiting in one centralized layer. Kgateway also protects AI models, tools, and agents by securing LLM consumption and data access. Intelligent routing capabilities support AI inference workloads directly inside Kubernetes clusters. The platform scales from lightweight microgateways to massively parallel centralized gateways. Kgateway supports agent-to-agent and MCP-based communication through a single secure endpoint. It enables omni-directional API connectivity across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Kgateway helps organizations innovate faster while maintaining security and governance.
