    Nginx Ingress Controller

    We have spent the last months reworking our nginx-ingress-controller-app by aligning it to the upstream ingress-nginx project. This is necessary to be future-proof, feature compliant, and offer the best ingress experience possible. Therefore we want to announce the first public beta release of our new ingress-nginx chart.

    The stable release v3.0.0 will be cut as soon as all possible bugs have been fixed and improvements have been implemented. For our beta release we added all changes mentioned in our alpha1 release.

    To have a flawless experience we wrote a migration guide. This guide contains a step-by-step guide which replaces your old app deployment to upgrade the chart without any major outages.

    All feedback and questions regarding the beta release, its changes and our migration guide are very welcome. Reach us in the support channel if necessary.

    Warning: Do not install the beta release in production environments.
