Traefik Becomes the De Facto Standard for Kubernetes Networking as Major Platform Vendors Migrate from Ingress NGINX
AMSTERDAM, March 24, 2026--KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe — Traefik Labs today announced that IBM Cloud, Nutanix, OVHcloud, SUSE, TIBCO, and additional platform vendors and leading neoclouds have each independently selected Traefik Proxy as their strategic ingress controller and Gateway API solution, following the official retirement of the Kubernetes community’s ingress NGINX project this month. Together, these platforms represent millions of Kubernetes clusters in production across financial
