What’s new
We're excited to announce two new features!
- ALB has added the ability to configure JWT validation. See the what's new post for more information. https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2025/11/application-load-balancer-jwt-verification. For more information, check out the new ingress annotation,
alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/jwt-validation. - NLB has added a new protocol, QUIC pass through. See the what's new post for more information. https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2025/11/aws-network-load-balancer-quic-passthrough-mode. To see how to get started with QUIC and the load balancer controller, checkout the new use case: https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/aws-load-balancer-controller/v2.15/guide/use_cases/quic/
