Significant change in Kubernetes outbound networking

Scheduled for Apr 8, 08:30 - 10:30 UTC

Scheduled

The change involves routing all outbound traffic from Kubernetes through AWS NAT Gateways with static IP addresses. This means that seen from ouside, all our traffic will come from the same 3 IP addresses instead of over 35 random IP addresses like today. A benefit is that these 3 IP addresses can be whitelisted by 3rd party companies or government agencies. This has been a feature request from several T&I teams over the years.

No downtime is expected.
