Traefik intercepts and routes every incoming request to the corresponding backend services.

Unlike a traditional, statically configured reverse proxy, Traefik uses service discovery to configure itself dynamically from the services themselves. All major protocols are supported and can be flexibly managed with a rich set of configurable middlewares for load balancing, rate-limiting, circuit-breakers, mirroring, authentication, and more.

Traefik also supports SSL termination and can be used with an ACME provider (like Let’s Encrypt) for automatic certificate generation.

Traefik’s extensive features and capabilities stack up to make it the comprehensive gateway to all of your applications.



This is very good for Docker, comes with SSL, Load Balancer and can manage your docker application you can have all services running on the same port but delegate to seperate services. This is a must know for distributed systems. I used it to manage 2 instances of Wordpress, learnin curve dey small

Nice.

I havent seen others use Traefik it.

From your engineering experience, how'd you compare Traefik with Nginix ?

Including the learning curve.

Almost the same except Traefik has less configuration out of the box. Nginx mehn na documentation go kill you
