<p>I'm trying to apply SSL to my kubernetes clusters (production &amp; staging environment), but for now only on staging. I successfully installed the cert-manager, and since I have a 5 subdomains, I want to use wildcards, so I want to configure it with dns01. The problem is, we us GoDaddy for DNS management, but it's currently not supported (I think) by cert-manager. There is an issue (<a href="https://github.com/jetstack/cert-manager/issues/1083" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/jetstack/cert-manager/issues/1083</a>) and also a PR to support this, but I was wondering if there is a workaround for this to use godaddy with cert-manager since there is not a lot of activity on this subject? I want to use ACME so I can use let's encrypt for certificates.</p>

<p>I'm fairly new to kubernetes, so if I missed something let me know. </p>

<p>Is it possible to use let's encrypt with other type of issuers than ACME? Is there any other way where I can use GoDaddy DNS &amp; let's encrypt with kubernetes?</p>

<p>For now I don't have any Ingresses but only 2 services that are external faced. One frontend and one API gateway as LoadBalancer services.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>If you are looking to connect publicly-trusted CAs to Kubernetes via cert-manager (such as GlobalSign, DigiCert, Entrust), you can use Venafi Cloud as an issuer with cert-manager to automate certificate renewals for Kubernetes.
Venafi Cloud connects to third-party CAs and is integrated with cert-manager. Venafi Cloud also has a built-in certification authority for privately trusted certificates for internal-facing infrastructure such as containers.</p>
