k0s VS traefik

I am myself studying it and going through the official documentation and toying with k8s flavors like kind, k3s and k0s.

There's a whole community of hobbyists building Raspberry Pi clusters, porting things to work on various Arm processors, exploring and contributing to minimalist distros like k0s and microk8s, etc.

I use k0s btw ,and it is fantastic.

Here is link number 1 - Previous text "k0s"

So for example, in my own personal infra repos and for projects I do, Make orchestrates Pulumi, dnscontrol (Holy shit is that tool underrated), ansible, k0s/k0sctl (I run that distro), and all the kubernetes stuff.

I wasn’t able to run Kubernetes in NAS last time I tried it. https://github.com/k0sproject/k0s/issues/1184. As for public access you don’t want to do it for security reasons and instead rely on vpn. Tailscale and ZeroTier are easy to setup.

I prefer k0s, https://k0sproject.io/ .

actually that is not really true - i strongly urge you to try out http://k3s.io/ or https://k0sproject.io/

these are full-fledged, certified k8s distributions that run on raspberry pi as well as all the way in production.

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.
