Gloo
Gloo is Solo.io's family of open-source and enterprise API gateway, service mesh and developer portal products, built on Envoy Proxy and Istio and delivered as software the customer runs in their own Kubernetes clusters rather than as a hosted SaaS. Gloo Edge and Gloo Gateway provide ingress, advanced traffic management, external auth, rate limiting, WAF, GraphQL and AI/LLM traffic routing; Gloo Mesh manages multi-cluster Istio; and Gloo Portal publishes API products to internal and external consumers with teams, applications, subscriptions, API keys and OAuth credentials. Solo.io renamed its commercial line in 2026 — Gloo Gateway is now Solo Enterprise for kgateway and Gloo Mesh is now Solo Enterprise for Istio — and the upstream kgateway project is a conformant implementation of the Kubernetes Gateway API, passing 93 of 93 core and extended conformance tests against v1.6.1.
Gloo publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network, including API Products API, Applications API, Me API, and 6 more. Tagged areas include API Gateway, Cloud-Native, Developer Portal, Envoy, and Istio.
The Gloo catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.
Gloo’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, getting-started guide, engineering blog, changelog, support, API reference, and 37 more developer resources.
