We're excited to introduce Gloo Gateway 2.0, built on the CNCF kgateway project and Kubernetes Gateway API. This release unifies open-source innovation with enterprise-grade extensions, ambient mesh integration, and AI-ready data planes to deliver secure, scalable, and future-proof API gateway capabilities for cloud-native and agentic workloads.

This article discusses different ways to install Istio ambient mesh, and contrasts the Helm approach with the Gloo Operator, a new method for installing ambient mesh in Gloo Mesh.

Implementing an MCP gateway with Apigee? Wait, can you use your existing API gateway to implement MCP?

Explore Istio installation options with Gloo Mesh. Compare Helm for control and flexibility vs. Gloo Operator for simplicity and automation to find the best fit for your environment.

Discover how Istio’s ambient mesh strengthens microservices security beyond sidecars with improved isolation, reduced attack surfaces, and simpler operations.

Learn how to migrate from Istio sidecars to ambient mesh with zero downtime. Step-by-step strategies, best practices, and tools to ensure a safe transition.

Compare Istio’s new ambient multicluster support with Gloo Mesh’s multicluster peering. Learn the similarities, key differences, and scalability trade-offs.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is moving fast from experimental to enterprise-ready. I am working with a number of customers / prospects / community members who want to go beyond locally deployed stdio transport MCP servers to multi-tenant remote HTTP “MCP services”. The most pressing question is: How do we call upstream APIs on behalf of a user from our multi-tenant MCP servers when the call crosses trust domain boundaries?

Discover how Solo.io's enterprise version of kagent extends Kubernetes to turn cloud-native infrastructure into agent-native infrastructure.
