Tigera: Calico Demo: Cut Costs and Control Outbound Kubernetes Traffic with Calico Egress Gateway

The dynamic and non-routable nature of Kubernetes pod IPs can make it a challenge to connect your Kubernetes workloads to external services. While cloud-managed NAT gateways solve this problem, they often come with high costs and limited flexibility. Calico gives you the power to handle NAT from inside your cluster, putting you in control and saving you money.

In this demo, you’ll discover:

• How Calico Egress Gateway provides a static, routable IP for your outbound traffic
• Assign fixed egress IPs to specific namespaces or workloads
• Cut cloud costs by avoiding expensive cloud-managed NAT gateway fees

Join us to see how Calico Egress Gateway is a simple, cost-effective, and powerful way to handle egress traffic in your Kubernetes environment and avoid costly cloud-based NAT Gateway fees!
