SIG Network is completely rethinking the way you define groupings of applications (Service) and get traffic sent to them (Ingress) by building the Service APIs, a new set of primitives which are better suited to how different groups of users interact with them. Bowei Du is a Tech Lead on GKE and a member of SIG Network who is leading the design and implementation of these new APIs, as well as working on getting Ingress to GA in Kubernetes 1.19.
