Load Balancing is a critical aspect of modern cloud deployments, and it’s especially tricky and misunderstood in hybrid environments that span across public clouds and private datacenters on premise. Designing a future-proof solution that is scalable, robust, fast and includes automatic failovers for different disaster cases, is a challenge we need to tackle. Therefore, our evaluation focused on two base technologies: Multi-Cluster Meshes and DNS based Global Load Balancing.
Join us on our journey of evaluating the two CNCF projects Cilium and K8GB against real-world scenarios with complex multi-cloud deployments. Learn about the benefits, challenges and trade-offs you should expect when choosing a hybrid cloud strategy with Kubernetes!
A practical live demo will share our hands-on experience, pros and cons, alongside use-case-specific solution recommendations for your hybrid-cloud journey.
