Microservices have now become the model for the development of modern applications. This model, initiated by web giants, promotes extreme application modularization and runs counter to the monolithic model. Microservices allow a reduced release cycle, loose coupling between services, standardization of communication (REST), reduction of risks during deliveries, cloud orientation, and more. But it still remains tedious to easily connect these services without changing the application code. Emile Vauge explains how to effectively manage inbound network traffic in your container-based infrastructure with Traefik, a modern reverse proxy and load balancer made to deploy microservices with ease. Traefik can watch an orchestrator’s API to generate its configuration automatically, solving one of the biggest pains of dealing with microservices deployed in an orchestrator.
