Installing Kong Gateway on Red Hat OpenShift

This example stands up a Kong Gateway instance on a pre-provisioned instance of OpenSgift, using Kong Ingress Controller (KIC) for proxying service calls and HAProxy as Ingress Controller. This way, we can leverage OpenShift Routes to proxy requests into kong-manager, admin-api and dev-portal. Lastly, we enable OIDC RBAC for Kong Manager and Developer Portal and configure Okta as the IdP.
