kgateway ecosystem integrations

[npolshakova]

Description

Create clear, approachable documentation and blog posts that demonstrate how to integrate kgateway with other CNCF projects such as Argo, Istio, and KServe. These integrations will highlight real-world use cases, explain best practices, and help drive adoption across the CNCF ecosystem.

Example resources:

• Old Gloo integration for Argo Rollouts: https://docs.solo.io/gateway/latest/integrations/argo/
• Old Gloo integration for Istio: https://docs.solo.io/gateway/main/integrations/istio/
• kserve Istio integration: https://kserve.github.io/website/master/admin/serverless/servicemesh/

Istio:

• Applying kgateway TrafficPolicies with Istio
• agentgateway + istio integration docs
• observability integrations with kgateway policies and Istio

Argo rollouts:

• Add example with kgateway metrics analysis template
• Istio + kgateway + argo rollouts integration

Kserve:

• kgateway as ingress for kserve
• Ratelimiting
• Extauth
• JWT/rbac
• Observability

We have docs for ArgoCD and Istio sidecar and ambient in the Integrations section: https://kgateway.dev/docs/integrations/

Don't have anything on kserve yet.

Hi @npolshakova ,

I’m interested in contributing to this project by creating clear and approachable documentation and blog posts to show how kgateway integrates with CNCF projects like Argo, Istio, and KServe.

I’ve contributed to Gittuf, updating 40+ long docstrings (merged PRs) and collaborating with NYU PhD candidate Aditya and Patrick. I’d love to bring that experience here and help craft resources that highlight real-world use cases and best practices.

How can I get started?

Thanks,
Syed Mohammed Sylani

Hi @npolshakova , @artberger
Thank you for the update! I’m currently working on the KServe integration documentation and plan to share it by 4th August 2025 at 5:00 PM.

Kindly note that I'm already progressing on this task, so it would be great if it's not reassigned.
Please let me know if there are any specific use cases or areas you'd like me to focus on.

@bhoomi1024 This is LFX mentorship project so you'll need to write cover letter for your approach.

Hi @npolshakova , @artberger
I’m particularly interested in helping bridge the gap between complex systems and user understanding by contributing well-structured documentation and insightful blog posts. My goal is to clearly explain how kgateway integrates with key CNCF projects like Argo, Istio, and KServe, making these interactions more accessible to both new and experienced contributors. By highlighting real-world use cases and integration workflows, I hope to make it easier for developers to adopt and build on top of kgateway.

I have had experiences with Gofr.dev and fullstack development, and tools like git and docker.

Would be great to recieve some guidance on how to get started.

Thank You
Om Utkarsh

#340 does not resolve this and looks like it uses an outdated API.

We have docs for ArgoCD and Istio sidecar and ambient in the Integrations section: https://kgateway.dev/docs/integrations/

Don't have anything on kserve yet.

These are the gaps this issue should address as part of this issue:

Istio

• DestinationRule
• ServiceEntry
• AuthorizationPolicy
• kgateway TrafficPolicy

Kserve

• Basic routing integration
• Policies (Ratelimit, Extauthz, Transformations)
• Agentgateway

Argo Rollouts:

• Add examples for creating analysis templates with kgateway metrics
• Add examples for non-HTTPRoute resources
