k8s_gateway is not really a smart name. Considering the native k8s feature with the same name that has been in developement for a while now ;-)

This project fell victim to one of the two hardest problems in computer science. and it's not cache invalidation. do you have a better suggestion?

PrivatePuffin commented 3 years ago

Hmm... Thats actually a good question... Maybe KISS and do something descriptive like: CoreDNS_k8s_gateway?

I feel like having a CoreDNS in the name of a CoreDNS plugin is duplicating information. All plugins are already scoped by the CoreDNS project. I think the best-fitting name is k8s_external but this name is already taken by the built-in plugin. Maybe something like k8s-external-coredns?

Maybe: k8s-external-gateway? :)
