Gloo is an ingress controller and function gateway built on the Envoy Proxy, written in Go.
Gloo expands upon the model of traditional API Gateways as (currently) the only gateway to support routing on the function level. This allows users to compose gateway APIs from more granular components, i.e. the functions that compose services, rather than the services themselves.
This repository contains the core controller of the Gloo system. The core includes the Envoy xDS server and the translator that manages and calls Gloo plugins.
For an in-depth breakdown of of Gloo and its features, please see our documentation.
Getting started with Gloo on Kubernetes is as easy as running
kubectl apply \
-f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/solo-io/gloo-install/master/kube/install.yamlwhich will create the gloo-system namespace and deploy Envoy, Gloo, and Gloo's discovery services. To create your first
routes with Gloo, see the getting started page in our documentation.

Gloo would not be possible without the valuable open-source work of projects in the community. We would like to extend a special thank-you to envoy.
