As an Ingress Controller with Tyk Operator

Last updated: 1 minute read.

Ingress is an API object that manages external access to the services in a cluster, typically HTTP (source kubernetes.io - ingress). Tyk Operator offers an Ingress Controller, which dynamically manages Tyk ApiDefinition resources as per the ingress spec. This way your Tyk Gateway is configured as a drop-in replacement for a standard Kubernetes Ingress.

Tyk Operator is also the preferred way to use Tyk for users who follow GitOps standards. It enables Tyk to be used for managing API Definitions, security policies and other Tyk features.
