Action required

🚨 🚨 🚨 For ALB Target Optimizer Users who want to use auto-injection for ALB target control agent: New CRD ALBTargetControlConfig has been added. Update your CRDs and RBAC. If you're upgrading the charts using helm upgrade, you need to update CRDs manually: kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-load-balancer-controller/refs/heads/main/config/crd/bases/elbv2.k8s.aws_albtargetcontrolconfigs.yaml also update rbac policy by applying the latest changes kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-load-balancer-controller/refs/heads/main/config/rbac/role.yaml

What’s new

We're excited to announce two new features!

• Introduced Target Optimizer for Application Load Balancers (ALB). This feature enables ALB customers to configure capacity-aware load balancing, useful for workloads that have strict limitations on how many concurrent requests each target can process. To get started, you must deploy the Target Optimizer agent sidecar with your application pods.
  • AWS what’s new
  • Drive application performance with Application Load Balancer Target Optimizer
  • How to use it in the controller
• Introduced weighted target groups for Network Load Balancers (NLB). This feature allows users to configure weights among multiple NLB target groups. Weighted target groups enable you to easily perform blue/green and canary deployment strategies, all while using one NLB and with zero downtime.
  • AWS what’s new
  • Network Load Balancers now support Weighted Target Groups
  • How to use it in the controller

Changelog since v2.15.0

• cut v2.16.0 release (#​4462, @​wweiwei-li)
• Support ALB TargetOptimizer (#​4461, @​wweiwei-li)
• Add support for service weighted target groups (#​4455, @​kellyyan)

Beta Release: Gateway API Layer 7 (L7) Routing for AWS Load Balancer Controller

We are excited to announce the Beta release of Layer 7 (L7) routing support for the Kubernetes Gateway API within the AWS Load Balancer Controller (LBC)!🥳🥳🥳 This highly anticipated feature allows you to provision and manage AWS Application Load Balancers (ALBs) for HTTP, HTTPS, and GRPC traffic directly from your Kubernetes clusters using the extensible Gateway API. Please refer to L7 Gateway API Documentation to learn more.

This beta release focuses on Gateway API features with comprehensive status reporting, advanced authentication, and stability improvements. While we encourage you to test these features extensively in your development environments, please be aware that this is a Beta release and is not yet production-ready. We are actively gathering feedback to finalize stability for official production use. This Beta status applies only to the new Gateway API features. All existing controller functionality for standard Ingress, Service and TargetGroupBinding resources remains stable and is safe for production workflows. Please restrict use of the new Gateway API features to testing and development environments.

What’s new

• We are pleased to announce the (Beta) of Layer 4 (L4) routing support for the Kubernetes Gateway API within the AWS Load Balancer Controller (LBC). This significant enhancement allows users to provision and manage AWS Network Load Balancers (NLBs) for TCP, UDP, and TLS traffic directly from their Kubernetes clusters, leveraging the powerful and extensible Gateway API. The LBC now fully supports the GatewayClass ,Gateway, TCPRoute, UDPRoute, and TLSRoute resources from the Gateway API. Please refer L4Routing for more info.

What’s new

• Improved Prometheus metrics!
  • Checkout the new Prometheus metrics. Their documentation can be found here. https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/aws-load-balancer-controller/v2.13/guide/metrics/prometheus. We hope this improves the ability to debug issues using the LBC and monitoring general trends. Please submit an issue if you think we missed an important metric to collect.
• Added support for ALB as a target of NLB to Service objects.
  • We are thrilled to add support for this highly requested, popular NLB / ALB feature. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/application-load-balancer-type-target-group-for-network-load-balancer/
  • Check out the new annotations in the https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/aws-load-balancer-controller/v2.13/guide/ingress/annotations/#enable-frontend-nlb to get started.
• LBC now supports RAM shared VPCs
  • In the v2.12.0 release, LBC added support for cross account Target Groups. However, we missed some critical functionality to support Target Groups using RAM shared VPCs.
  • Using https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/aws-load-balancer-controller/v2.13/guide/targetgroupbinding/targetgroupbinding/#assumerole should seamlessly work for peered and RAM shared VPCs.
• LBC now supports TCP_UDP type Listeners and TargetGroups.
  • TCP_UDP is a popular listener type for AWS NLB, which allows serving both TCP and UDP from the same port. We have backfilled this feature into the LBC.
  • You can enable this feature by specifying a service with TCP and UDP protocols on the same port.
  • In order to enable the feature, please enable the LBC feature flag EnableTCPUDPListener or specify individual services to enable the feature by using the annotation service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-enable-tcp-udp-listener
• The LBC now supports a very basic Gateway API implementation
  • We have implemented a basic Gateway for both ALB and NLB.
  • See the documentation here https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/aws-load-balancer-controller/v2.13/guide/gateway/gateway/
