Excellent for lightweight service discovery for docker data center and docker swarm

Lightweight micro-service service-discovery, support extensively for docker swarm, data center, Kubernetes. 1. Support Let's Encrypt automatic SSL certificate generation for all subdomains 2. Came along with load balancing. Also, we don't need to re-route traffic through Nginx as we do in Kubernetes if we open 80 and 443 ports 3. For all micro-services, add traefik configuration in the docker-compose file as service labels 4. Supports logging tools like jeager, prometheus, grafana 5. Cloud-native application proxy. 6. Less learning curve compared to Istio ingress 7. Excellent routing and traffic rules

Simple to Use, Helpful docs

Best part about traefik is its easy to use documentation. For the most of things to discover from , docs were really helpful. Most of the time, to use traefik its configuration is defined in different formats like YAML, toml etc. Also, as of today i am using traefik as an ingress controller and it is performing well for my production builds also.

Cloud native routing done

I've had the joy of setting up traefik as reverse proxy for prometheus and grafana. It's a great piece of software, written in Golang and open source. Let me explain what it makes so unique compared to Nginx/Apache/Haproxy. traefik provides different way for configuration. You can feed it with YAML, JSON or TOML. There is no custom format, like in Nginx. If you ever wrote a custom Ansible module for Nginx you know what I mean... with Traefik you can just pipe the YAML 1 to 1 to the traefik configuration. For configuration purposes Traefik provides an API and a nice dashboard, which helps for debugging. Traefik also provides natively prometheus metrics (something that nginx or apache do not) and I think that the router/middleware/service concept is pretty unique. Right now I am testing it in Kubernetes Environment and I am convinced so far, that I am going to use it as Ingress.
