Description

The Application Gateway Ingress Controller (AGIC) is now generally available as an add-on in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). You can now easily create or attach an existing Application Gateway instance to their AKS clusters.  You can use the standard Kubernetes ingress API to define your routing rules, then have those rules be implemented by the managed Application Gateway service. The Azure Application Gateway is a scalable, reliable, and secure L7 load balancer. By using Application Gateway as the entry point to the AKS applications, you don’t have to self-manage third party networking tools.
