    Yes. Google's ingress controller talks to the GCP API and spins up an HTTP LB for you. The AWS LB Controller handles provisioning ALB's for you. And ... I guess other clouds exist too but these are the ones I am familiar with.
  • GKE Ingress: How to configure IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
    2 projects | dev.to | 1 Jun 2021
    At the end of the blog entry where I posted about how to fix a 502 error returned by GKE Ingress, I described an issue regarding health check configuration that has been opened for over three years. The one I mentioned here to support multiple addresses it's been opened for over four years. I think GKE Ingress is a remarkable resource. It can help you quickly release an application using K8S and cloud-native features wrapped in abstracted manifests, but it seems a bit left aside in some aspects.

    Google supports its own ingress controller, GCE, which you can use in place of an nginx controller. However, it has some drawbacks, for instance, lack of rewrite rules support, at least at the moment of writing.
