Is there a SAS statement regarding Ingress-NGINX reaching EOL?

Hi experts,

Just encountered this: https://kubernetes.io/blog/2025/11/11/ingress-nginx-retirement/

SAS Viya relies on this component. Is there an official SAS statement about this and what customers should do?

Thanks

We're aware of this recent announcement and our teams are working on it.

We've just updated the announcement with our plans to add support for a different ingress controller. See Upcoming Changes to Kubernetes Ingress for SAS Viya 4 Deployments for the latest.
