This is definitely addressed in the article. The relevant bits talk about moving features from the commercial version to the open source version, as well as the introduction of an open source nginx agent that can do the "dynamic config" on your behalf (via API I presume).

I agree with your sentiment though! I hope they do follow through as nginx is generally an easy sell to others when trying to fill holes in your tech stack and otherwise pretty bulletproof.

Good catch! I hope this is applicable to the kubernetes ingress controller.

Kubernetes will probably drop Ingress in favor of API Gateway in two years.

That's just the API layer for configuration, you still need a proxy to route. Nginx will still stay relevant

yeah, hopefully it helps replace a bunch of lua code from ingress-nginx
