Traefik Labs Delivers API Gateway and Ingress Controller Integration for Nutanix Kubernetes Platform
January 29, 2025

Traefik Labs announced the integration of its Traefik Proxy with the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform® (NKP) solution.

By standardizing on Traefik as the NKP ingress proxy, Nutanix has paved the way for its customers to easily add on Traefik API Gateway and the recently launched Traefik AI Gateway. This technology integration empowers enterprises with advanced API management, enhanced security, and seamless deployment capabilities across hybrid multicloud and AI-driven environments.

Traefik Labs' cloud-native, Kubernetes-optimized solutions enable NKP users to expose, secure, and manage APIs and microservices effortlessly, delivering robust performance and simplicity for Day 2 operations. With the introduction of the Traefik AI Gateway, enterprises can now efficiently manage, secure, and scale traffic to AI workloads and APIs across distributed environments.

The Traefik integration with NKP provides a frictionless upgrade path from a standard Ingress Controller to a full-featured API Gateway and AI Gateway. By executing three Helm chart commands in under a minute, enterprises can unlock advanced capabilities such as API versioning, detailed observability, AI-specific traffic routing, and enhanced governance without downtime or complexity.

“Integrating Traefik Proxy into the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform offers our customers a streamlined solution for modern API and AI management, as well as microservices connectivity,” said Tobi Knaup, GM Cloud Native at Nutanix. “This integration aligns perfectly with our commitment to delivering a consistent, future-proof application platform that simplifies operations and ensures true portability across any environment.”

The integration delivers a multi-layered security approach that addresses critical challenges for enterprises managing dynamic, distributed applications and AI workloads. Features such as API governance, authentication, observability, and AI traffic management allow NKP users to securely scale operations while maintaining confidence in the reliability and performance of their environments.

“Our integration with Nutanix Kubernetes Platform reflects Traefik Labs' mission to simplify cloud-native and AI adoption for enterprises,” said Sudeep Goswami, CEO of Traefik Labs. “With our seamless upgrade path, advanced API management, and the introduction of our AI Gateway, organizations can adapt quickly to evolving infrastructure demands while prioritizing security, governance, and scalability. Together with Nutanix, we enable enterprises to accelerate innovation with confidence.”

This integration equips Nutanix customers with an optimized solution for managing APIs, microservices, and AI workloads across hybrid multicloud deployments. By leveraging Traefik's native Kubernetes architecture and AI Gateway capabilities, enterprises can gain operational efficiency, improved security posture, and the flexibility to scale as workloads evolve.
