Installation Guide
Ambassador
The Ambassador API Gateway provides all the functionality of a traditional ingress controller (e.g., path-based routing) while exposing many additional capabilities such as authentication, URL rewriting, CORS, rate limiting, and automatic metrics collection.
Ambassador Operator
This addon deploys the Ambassador Operator, which in turn will install Ambassador in a kubespray cluster.
The Ambassador Operator is a Kubernetes Operator that controls Ambassador's complete lifecycle in your cluster, automating many of the repeatable tasks you would otherwise have to perform yourself. Once installed, the Operator will complete installations and seamlessly upgrade to new versions of Ambassador as they become available.
Configuration
ingress_ambassador_namespace
(defaultambassador
): namespace for installing Ambassador.ingress_ambassador_update_window
(default0 0 * * SUN
): crontab-like expression for specifying when the Operator should try to update the Ambassador API Gateway.ingress_ambassador_version
(defaulkt:*
): SemVer rule for versions allowed for installation/updates.ingress_ambassador_multi_namespaces
(defaultfalse
): By default, Ambassador will only watch theingress_ambassador_namespace
namespace forAmbassadorInstallation
CRD resources. When set totrue
, this value will tell the Ambassador Operator to watch all namespaces for CRDs. If you want to run multiple Ambassador ingress instances, set this totrue
.
Ingress annotations
The Ambassador API Gateway will automatically load balance Ingress
resources
that include the annotation kubernetes.io/ingress.class=ambassador
. All the other
resources will be just ignored.
