Jetpath Helm Chart

High-performance eBPF/XDP load balancer and traffic routing platform for Kubernetes.

Jetpath is a proprietary product by EdgeNEXUS Limited.

🚀 Why Jetpath?

With NGINX Ingress Controller retiring in March 2026, Jetpath offers a modern, high-performance alternative built on eBPF/XDP technology.

Key Features

L4 Load Balancing: Round robin, weighted, least connection, source persistence
L7 HTTP Routing: Host and path-based routing at kernel speed
eBPF/XDP Performance: Process packets at the earliest point in the network stack
Traffic Defense: IP blocking and DDoS protection at kernel level
Kubernetes Native: Automatic Service/Endpoint synchronization
