Traefik
Reverse proxy, TLS termination and automatic certificates
About this program
The single door into the platform. It reads container labels, publishes the right hostname and obtains and renews every TLS certificate without a hand-written config file.
Features
- Routing declared as container labels, next to the service
- Automatic Let's Encrypt issuance and renewal
- HTTP to HTTPS redirect and hostname canonicalisation
- Middleware chain for headers, rate limits and auth
Why we chose it
Because certificate expiry and forgotten nginx vhosts are two of the most common causes of an outage, and Traefik removes both by construction.
