+- Traffic is then forwarded to a matching [frontend](#frontends). A frontend defines routes from [entrypoints](#entrypoints) to [backends](#backends).
 Routes are created using requests fields (`Host`, `Path`, `Headers`...) and can match or not a request.
 - The [frontend](#frontends) will then send the request to a [backend](#backends). A backend can be composed by one or more [servers](#servers), and by a load-balancing strategy.
 - Finally, the [server](#servers) will forward the request to the corresponding microservice in the private network.
