About:
glooctl is the command-line interface for Gloo Edge, an Envoy-powered API gateway and Kubernetes ingress controller. It enables users to manage routing, security, and transformation policies for modern cloud-native applications. The tool simplifies complex configuration tasks for microservices architectures.
|
Key Features:
- Traffic management with advanced routing (weighted, mirror, fault injection)
- Built-in security features like OAuth, OIDC, API keys, and JWT validation
- Request transformation and response manipulation
- Upstream discovery and health checking for service discovery
- Seamless integration with Kubernetes and Consul
|
Use Cases:
- Managing ingress traffic for Kubernetes clusters
- Securing microservices APIs with authentication and authorization
- Implementing canary deployments and traffic shifting
- Aggregating services from multiple discovery registries
|
Alternatives:
-
istioctl
– Istio's CLI; Gloo Edge is often considered easier to configure and more flexible for non-Kubernetes environments.
-
traefik
– A reverse proxy/load balancer; Gloo Edge focuses more on API gateway features and transformation capabilities.
