The Function Gateway built on top of Envoy

The Function Gateway

Gloo is a function gateway built on top of the Envoy Proxy. Gloo provides a unified entry point for access to all services and serverless functions, translating from any interface spoken by a client to any interface spoken by a backend. Gloo aggregates REST APIs and events calls from clients, "glueing" together services in-cluster, out of cluster, across clusters, along with any provider of serverless functions.

This Repo

This repository contains the components that compose the core Gloo storage watcher, Envoy xDS server, and config translator. For a better understanding of Gloo and its features, please see our documentation.
