Charmed Traefik
traefik-k8s is a charm for Traefik, an ingress integrator and reverse proxy for Kubernetes.
It is an essential part of the COS Lite bundle.
This Charmed Operator handles instantiation, scaling, configuration, and Day 2 operations specific to Traefik.
This operator drives the Traefik application, and it can be composed with other operators to deliver a complex application or service.
The charm offers different kinds of ingress:
- Ingress per app. This is the typical use case. The related app has only one ingress url like
/mymodel-myapp, and Traefik will load-balance in a round-robin fashion across all units. - Ingress per unit. Each unit of the related app obtains its own ingress url, like
/mymodel-myapp-0. - Traefik route. This is a means to provide a fully custom ingress configuration to Traefik.
Ingress is a purely in-model concern. Traefik will happily cross-model relate with your remote ingress requirers, but will be unable to actually route to them. This is a known issue.
This charm is:
- part of the COS Lite bundle
- intended to be used together with certificates provider over the
tls-certificatesinterface
