In case you missed it: The Kubernetes community announced that Ingress NGINX will be retired in March 2026.
There are several good Ingress controllers available as options, and we hope you’ll consider our open source NGINX Ingress Controller. We think you’ll actually like it for many reasons: it’s genuinely open source with full-time dedicated resources for sustainable maintenance, you’ll have a minimal learning curve using the same NGINX engine you already know, and it’s production-tested at scale.
This blog post covers further considerations for your ingress alternatives and how to get started moving to NGINX Ingress Controller.
