eBPF based cloud-native service load-balancer. Powering K8s|Edge|5G|IoT|XaaS Apps.

What is loxilb

loxilb is an open source hyper-scale software load-balancer for cloud-native workloads. It uses eBPF as its core-engine and is based on Golang. It is designed primarily to support on-premise, edge and public-cloud Kubernetes cluster deployments, but it should work equally well as a standalone load-balancer. loxilb aims to provide the following :

• Service type external load-balancer for kubernetes
• L4/NAT stateful loadbalancer
  • NAT44, NAT66, NAT64 with One-ARM, FullNAT, DSR etc
  • High-availability support with hitless clustering
  • Full compliance for K8s loadbalancer Spec
  • High-perf replacement for the aging iptables/ipvs
• Optimized SRv6 implementation in eBPF
• L7 proxy support
• Make GTP tunnels first class citizens of the Linux world
  • Support for QFI and other extension headers
• eBPF based data-path forwarding (Dual BSD/GPLv2 license)
  • Complete kernel networking bypass with home-grown stack for advanced features like Conntrack, QoS etc
  • Highly scalable with low-latency & high througput
• goLang based control plane components (Apache license)
• Seamless integration with goBGP based routing stack
• GoLang based easy to use APIs/Interfaces for developers
