• Kubernetes/Openshift is the most preferred container orchestration platform for both small and large scale application deployments.
• These applications once deployed in Kubernetes need a way to be exposed to external users, which is where an Ingress Controller or an L4 LoadBalancer helps.
• NSX Advanced LoadBalancer (Earlier Avi LB) is an Enterprise LB which apart from providing advanced L4/L7 loadbalancing features on a multi-cloud setup also works as an Ingress Controller/L4 LoadBalancer for Kubernetes/Openshift environments (On-prem and Public Clouds). It also supports providing GSLB service for an Ingress deployed across multiple kubernetes cluster.
• Worked on integrations with VMware Tanzu, RedHat Openshift, Vanilla K8s, Managed k8s.
• I lead the System, Scale and Integration testing for this offering.
