Reducing Kubernetes Egress Costs: How to secure outbound traffic without a NAT Gateway

Secure Kubernetes outbound traffic while reducing NAT gateway costs by redesigning how egress is handled at the cluster level. This webinar shows how to replace cloud managed NATs with Calico Egress Gateway to gain stable egress IPs, stronger controls, and lower data processing costs without sacrificing availability.

The demo walks through identity aware egress for Kubernetes, including assigning specific egress IPs to namespaces and restricting access to external services. It also covers how to track, log, and audit outbound connections using the Calico Service Graph to support compliance and prevent unauthorized traffic from leaving the cluster.
