acme-companion VS traefik

My hunch is that because I decided to include the acme-companion image in this nginx setup, that maybe it has something to do with the SSL certs? The only other thing I could think of is that I had to combine the networks in order for nginx-proxy and Sonarr both to be able to see my transmission instance via:

Probably want acme with nginx https://github.com/nginx-proxy/acme-companion

setting up letsencrypt with nginx-proxy and acme-companion

I'm experiencing a weird situation, and am not sure how to go about finding a solution. I am running the nginx-proxy container (https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy) together with the acme-companion container (https://github.com/nginx-proxy/acme-companion) to provide https connections to all my different applications under different subdomains on the same host (currently, for testing purposes: only two other nginx containers with a plain html page).

We use the nginx-proxy docker image with its acme-companion to have an auto configuring SSL reverse proxy, so it's really easy to deploy images (we do it based on a merge PR into protected release branches).

Use a reverse proxy to handle TLS/SSL encryption. I find nginx-proxy with companion easy to use, just follow steps 1, 2, 3.

Where I'm running into issues is with the two stacks I have deployed - one is a wordpress stack which uses the wordpress image along with a db image (going by the docs here), and the other is the nginx-proxy and acme-companion (going by the docs here).

Just use nginx-proxy and the LetsEncrypt companion as reverse proxy to handle TLS/SSL in front of your web server.

You can simply use this proxy container which automatically generates nginx config based on envs set in your containers. There is also a companion container which takes care of your certs. https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy https://github.com/nginx-proxy/acme-companion

However, it's very unlikely that .NET developers will directly expose their Kestrel-based web apps to the internet. Typically, we use other popular web servers like Nginx, Traefik, and Caddy to act as a reverse-proxy in front of Kestrel for various reasons:

Not as good though. Case in point: https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues/5472#issuecomment-... (that's just from this morning)

I'm speak objectively here. Of course, any built-in auto HTTPS that works (more or less) is better than none. Traefik uses an ACME library that was originally written for Caddy. After the original author left that project, Traefik team started maintaining it. Caddy's users' requirements exceeded what the library was capable of, but unfortunately there was friction in getting it to achieve our requirements. So I ended up writing a new ACME client library in Go and, together with upgrades in CertMagic (Caddy's auto-TLS lib), Caddy has the more flexible, robust, and capable auto-HTTPS functionality.

That is to say, not all auto-HTTPS functionalities are the same.

We'll use Traefik, an open source cloud native gateway that can plug into a Kubernetes cluster. It has the concept of "middleware" that can process API requests before passing them through to a backend. We can configuring a rate limit for all of our API endpoints by matching on the request path:

I did the same question here and here

Sadly there is currently no way of doing so. https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues/6999

Traefik is another widely used system that has automatic configuration and offers support for more things like swarm/kubernetes/etc.

I have a webapp which I currently have deployed by running nginx in a container. Works as it should, however I am intersted in adding more observability to the webapp and found this reverse-proxy https://github.com/traefik/traefik which seems to expose some nice metrics which can be useful for observability.
