<p>I'm running my workloads on AWS EKS service in the cloud. I can see that there is not default Ingress Controller available (as it is available for GKE) we have to pick a 3rd party-one.</p>

<p>I decided to go with <a href="https://docs.traefik.io/user-guide/kubernetes/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Traefik</a>. After following documentations and other resources (like <a href="https://github.com/pahud/amazon-eks-workshop/tree/master/03-creating-services/ingress/traefik-ingress" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a>), I feel that using Traefik as the Ingress Controller does not create a LoadBalancer in the cloud automatically. We have to go through it manually to setup everything.</p>

<p>How to use Traefik to work as the Kubernetes Ingress the same way other Ingress Controllers work (i.e. Nginx etc) that create a LoadBalancer, register services etc? Any working example would be appreciated.</p>

<p>Have you tried with annotations like in this example?</p>

<pre><code>apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: traefik-proxy
  annotations:
    service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-ssl-cert: "arn:aws:acm:REGION:ACCOUNTID:certificate/CERT-ID"
    service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-backend-protocol: "http"
spec:
  type: LoadBalancer
  selector:
    app: traefik-proxy
    tier: proxy
  ports:
  - port: 443
    targetPort: 80
</code></pre>
