traefik vs nginx ingress controller

Question

Hi I am using kubernetes and now need to make a choice between traefik and nginx ingress controller for ingress expose. I have googled a lot, but seems no such big difference, especially nginx just announce support grpc now. Anyone can give a advice? Thanks very very much!

Answer 1

Found this comment at stackshare by Howie Zhao The reasons for choosing Traefik over Nginx are as follows:

• Traefik built-in Let’s Encrypt and supports automatic renewal
• Traefik automatically enables HTTP/2
• Prometheus can be supported through simple Traefik configuration
• cookiecutter django integrates Traefik's configuration by default
