Mitigate Cybersecurity Threats
Secure Kubernetes apps from edge to cloud without adding complexity and overhead. Mitigate cybersecurity threats before they cause damage to your organization and customers through Zero Trust, continuous authentication and authorization (AuthN/AuthZ), access control, end-to-end encryption, Layer 7 OWASP and DoS protection, and actionable insights.
Achieve Better Visibility into App Health and Performance
Reduce outages and downtime and simplify troubleshooting by discovering problems before they impact your customers with more than 200 granular real-time and historical metrics and dashboards. Collect, monitor, and analyze your data through prebuilt integrations with your favorite ecosystem tools, including OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, and Jaeger.
Centralize Point of Control for API Policies
Implement API gateways at the edge of a Kubernetes cluster with NGINX Kubernetes-native tools. Deliver routing, security, and monitoring policy enforcement for API calls across on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments, reducing complexity, streamlining operations, and accelerating app releases.
Ensure Availability of Business-Critical Apps at All Times
Increase uptime and improve performance, preventing connection timeouts and errors, with advanced Layer 7 (HTTP, gRPC) and Layer 4 (TCP, UDP) load balancing across Kubernetes pods with dynamic, non-disruptive adaptation to topology changes, session persistence, and active health checks. Avoid downtime with blue-green, canary, rate limiting, and circuit breaker connectivity management patterns.
