Configure External Access
Setting up external access to your Redpanda cluster allows applications running outside the Kubernetes cluster to communicate with Redpanda. To make the Redpanda brokers externally accessible, the Pods must be exposed through Kubernetes Services, or routed through a Gateway with Gateway API TLSRoutes (beta).
Use a NodePort Service to expose your Redpanda cluster to clients outside of your Kubernetes cluster.
Use LoadBalancer Services to expose your Redpanda cluster to clients outside of your Kubernetes cluster.
Expose your Redpanda cluster to clients outside of your Kubernetes cluster by using a custom Service.
Use Gateway API TLSRoutes to expose your Redpanda cluster through a Gateway, without NodePort or LoadBalancer Services.
