The Kubernetes Demo

This demo consists of three demos. They were shown during the Load Balancing Kubernetes Services with NGINX and NGINX Plus talk at the NGINX Conf 2016.

The goal of the demos is to show when you need to use NGINX or NGINX Plus for load balancing services on Kubernetes. The demos cover external (ingress) load balancing: traffic originates outside of the Kubernetes cluster.

Prerequisites

To be able to run the demos you must have a Kubernetes cluster. Additionally, for the third demo, you must have the NGINX Plus subscription. If you don't have one, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial.

The demos

All three demos show how to setup load balancing of a Kubernetes service.

The first demo shows how to use the built-in TCP/UDP load balancing.
The second demo utilizes the built-in HTTP load balancing (Ingress) with NGINX or NGINX Plus Ingress controller.
The third demo shows how to configure NGINX Plus without the Ingress controller.
