OpenResty VS KubeSail

It's maybe deprecated by the official Nginx support, but there are other projects and organizations that are offering Lua scripting with Nginx with all kinds of extensions and libraries. See OpenResty website[0] and Github repo[1]. [0] - https://openresty.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 16 days ago

Have you seen https://openresty.org/en/ before? To share a quote directly taken from their website: > By taking advantage of various well-designed Nginx modules (most of which are developed by the OpenResty team themselves), OpenResty® effectively turns the nginx server into a powerful web app server, in which the web developers can use the Lua programming language to script various existing nginx C modules and... - Source: Hacker News / 17 days ago

Nginx is quite extendable, there are tons of nginx plugins to help you add more customizations. There is OpenResty, a version of nginx [0]. It allows you to script all sorts of stuff with Lua inside nginx itself. Tools like lockbox are not necessary, nginx, caddy, etc or heck even a normal 70 line python3 fastapi based script works just fine and should be more extendable than lockbox.

APISIX is an API Gateway. It builds upon OpenResty, a Lua layer built on top of the famous nginx reverse-proxy. APISIX adds abstractions to the mix, e.g., Route, Service, Upstream, and offers a plugin-based architecture. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

Apache APISIX is an API Gateway, which builds upon the OpenResty reverse-proxy to offer a plugin-based architecture. The main benefit of such an architecture is that it brings structure to the configuration of routes. It's a help at scale, when managing hundreds or thousands of routes. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

Agree community applications is great. Kubesail seems to be focusing on that use case - click to run self host stuff - but doesn’t have the catalog depth that Community Applications does. Source: over 1 year ago

Interesting. Usually my critique for products like this is something along the lines of "great, but how are you going to access your data from the internet?" Typically the answer to that is you need some sort of tunneling service like ngrok. I maintain a list of alternatives here[0]. The problem with most of these services is that they're targeted at developers and aren't something the average user should have to... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Hey, looks neat! We’re building something similar, but not Node.js specific, over at https://kubesail.com I’ll be keeping an eye on this project! - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Forgive the shameless promotion, but I'm working on a Kubernetes startup that provides an add-on to make home-hosting a lot easier - tunneling/dynamic DNS/backups/templates etc. Hopefully it will help if you go the Kubernetes route! Source: about 3 years ago
