Ingress NGINX EOL Exposes Open Source Governance Gaps | AppDevANGLE

97% of modern applications rely on open source software, but what happens when critical infrastructure reaches end of life? In this episode, Paul Nashawaty, Practice Lead and Principal Analyst at theCUBE Research, sits down with Dan Lorenc, CEO of Chainguard, to examine the end-of-life (EOL) of Ingress NGINX and what it reveals about open source sustainability, maintainer burnout, and enterprise risk exposure. The conversation explores why widely adopted open source components can suddenly become orphaned, why perimeter-facing infrastructure like ingress controllers creates outsized security and compliance risk, and how evolving regulations (including the EU Cyber Resilience Act) are forcing organizations to rethink how they govern open source software across its full lifecycle. Dan also outlines Chainguard’s approach to stewardship, including how archived or end-of-life projects can be safely maintained without forcing thousands of teams into disruptive migrations at once. This discussion is essential viewing for CISOs, platform leaders, security architects, and enterprise decision-makers navigating open source risk at scale. Key Highlights Why the Ingress NGINX EOL triggered enterprise panic Maintainer burnout vs. unrealistic expectations of “free” software Open source lifecycle blind spots in modern platform stacks Security risks of unmaintained, perimeter-facing components Regulatory pressure and compliance implications of EOL software How Chainguard approaches long-term open source stewardship 00:00 - Intro 00:06 - Exploring Open-Source: Insights, Challenges, and Innovations 03:24 - The Burden of Maintainers 05:31 - Preserving Legacy Systems: EmeritOSS and Chainguard's Innovative Solutions 09:33 - Open-Source Reflections: Insights and Future Directions
