# Custom Plugin Delivery in Kong Gateway Operator

Kong Gateway plugins allow users to implement custom logic in Lua (or other supported languages) that interacts with request and response objects or data streams. This talk will showcase how to efficiently package these plugins as OCI (Docker) images and install them using the Kong Gateway Operator. By automating plugin delivery in this way, the process becomes significantly more scalable, robust, and less error-prone. Attendees will learn practical techniques for streamlining plugin deployment, improving reliability, and reducing operational complexity.g
