## Overview ## Overview
Imagine that you have deployed a bunch of microservices on your infrastructure. You probably used a service registry (like etcd or consul) and/or an orchestrator (swarm, Mesos/Marathon) to manage all these services. Imagine that you have deployed a bunch of microservices with the help of an orchestrator (like Swarm or Kubernetes) or a service registry (like etcd or consul).
If you want your users to access some of your microservices from the Internet, you will have to use a reverse proxy and configure it using virtual hosts or prefix paths: Now you want users to access these microservices, and you need a reverse proxy.
- domain `api.domain.com` will point the microservice `api` in your private network Traditional reverse-proxies require that you configure _each_ route that will connect paths and subdomains to _each_ microservice.
- path `domain.com/web` will point the microservice `web` in your private network In an environment where you add, remove, kill, upgrade, or scale your services _many_ times a day, the task of keeping the routes up to date becomes tedious.
- domain `backoffice.domain.com` will point the microservices `backoffice` in your private network, load-balancing between your multiple instances
Microservices are often deployed in dynamic environments where services are added, removed, killed, upgraded or scaled many times a day. **This is when Træfik can help you!**
Traditional reverse-proxies are not natively dynamic. You can't change their configuration and hot-reload easily. Træfik listens to your service registry/orchestrator API and instantly generates the routes so your microservices are connected to the outside world -- without further intervention from your part.
Here enters Træfik. **Run Træfik and let it do the work for you!**
_(But if you'd rather configure some of your routes manually, Træfik supports that too!)_

## Quickstart ## Quickstart
You can have a quick look at Træfik in this [Katacoda tutorial](https://www.katacoda.com/courses/traefik/deploy-load-balancer) that shows how to load balance requests between multiple Docker containers. If you are looking for a more comprehensive and real use-case example, you can also check [Play-With-Docker](http://training.play-with-docker.com/traefik-load-balancing/) to see how to load balance between multiple nodes. To get your hands on Træfik, you can use the [5-Minute Quickstart](http://docs.traefik.io/#the-trfik-quickstart-using-docker) in our documentation (you will need Docker).
Alternatively, if you don't want to install anything on your computer, you can try Træfik online in this great [Katacoda tutorial](https://www.katacoda.com/courses/traefik/deploy-load-balancer) that shows how to load balance requests between multiple Docker containers.

## The Træfik Quickstart (Using Docker)
## Quickstart In this quickstart, we'll use [Docker compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose) to create our demo infrastructure.
You can have a quick look at Træfik in this [Katacoda tutorial](https://www.katacoda.com/courses/traefik/deploy-load-balancer) that shows how to load balance requests between multiple Docker containers. To save some time, you can clone [Træfik's repository](https://github.com/containous/traefik) and use the quickstart files located in the [examples/quickstart](https://github.com/containous/traefik/tree/master/examples/quickstart/) directory.
### 1 — Launch Træfik — Tell It to Listen to Docker
Create a `docker-compose.yml` file where you will define a `reverse-proxy` service that uses the official Træfik image:
```yaml
version: '3'
services:
reverse-proxy:
image: traefik #The official Traefik docker image
command: --api --docker #Enables the web UI and tells Træfik to listen to docker
ports:
- "80:80" #The HTTP port
- "8080:8080" #The Web UI (enabled by --api)
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock #So that Traefik can listen to the Docker events
```
**That's it. Now you can launch Træfik!**
Start your `reverse-proxy` with the following command:
```shell
docker-compose up -d reverse-proxy
```
You can open a browser and go to [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080) to see Træfik's dashboard (we'll go back there once we have launched a service in step 2).
### 2 — Launch a Service — Træfik Detects It and Creates a Route for You
Now that we have a Træfik instance up and running, we will deploy new services.
Edit your `docker-compose.yml` file and add the following at the end of your file.
```yaml
# ...
whoami:
image: emilevauge/whoami #A container that exposes an API to show it's IP address
labels:
- "traefik.frontend.rule=Host:whoami.docker.localhost"
```
The above defines `whoami`: a simple web service that outputs information about the machine it is deployed on (its IP address, host, and so on).
Start the `whoami` service with the following command:
```shell
docker-compose up -d whoami
```
Go back to your browser ([http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080)) and see that Træfik has automatically detected the new container and updated its own configuration.
When Traefik detects new services, it creates the corresponding routes so you can call them ... _let's see!_ (Here, we're using curl)
```shell
curl -H Host:whoami.docker.localhost http://127.0.0.1
```
_Shows the following output:_
```yaml
Hostname: 8656c8ddca6c
IP: 172.27.0.3
#...
```
### 3 — Launch More Instances — Traefik Load Balances Them
Run more instances of your `whoami` service with the following command:
```shell
docker-compose up -d --scale whoami=2
```
Go back to your browser ([http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080)) and see that Træfik has automatically detected the new instance of the container.
Finally, see that Træfik load-balances between the two instances of your services by running twice the following command:
```shell
curl -H Host:whoami.docker.localhost http://127.0.0.1
```
The output will show alternatively one of the followings:
```yaml
Hostname: 8656c8ddca6c
IP: 172.27.0.3
#...
```
```yaml
Hostname: 8458f154e1f1
IP: 172.27.0.4
# ...
```
### 4 — Enjoy Træfik's Magic
Now that you have a basic understanding of how Træfik can automatically create the routes to your services and load balance them, it might be time to dive into [the documentation](https://docs.traefik.io/) and let Træfik work for you! Whatever your infrastructure is, there is probably [an available Træfik backend](https://docs.traefik.io/configuration/backends/available) that will do the job.
Our recommendation would be to see for yourself how simple it is to enable HTTPS with [Træfik's let's encrypt integration](https://docs.traefik.io/user-guide/examples/#lets-encrypt-support) using the dedicated [user guide](https://docs.traefik.io/user-guide/docker-and-lets-encrypt/).

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -p 80:80 -v $PWD/traefik.toml:/etc/traefik/traefik.toml traefik docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -p 80:80 -v $PWD/traefik.toml:/etc/traefik/traefik.toml traefik
``` ```
## Test it
You can test Træfik easily using [Docker compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose), with this `docker-compose.yml` file in a folder named `traefik`:
```yaml
version: '3'
services:
proxy:
image: traefik
command: --api --docker --docker.domain=docker.localhost --logLevel=DEBUG
networks:
- webgateway
ports:
- "80:80"
- "8080:8080"
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
- /dev/null:/traefik.toml
networks:
webgateway:
driver: bridge
```
Start it from within the `traefik` folder:
```shell
docker-compose up -d
```
In a browser, you may open [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080) to access Træfik's dashboard and observe the following magic.
Now, create a folder named `test` and create a `docker-compose.yml` in it with this content:
```yaml
version: '3'
services:
whoami:
image: emilevauge/whoami
networks:
- web
labels:
- "traefik.backend=whoami"
- "traefik.frontend.rule=Host:whoami.docker.localhost"
networks:
web:
external:
name: traefik_webgateway
```
Then, start and scale it in the `test` folder:
```shell
docker-compose up --scale whoami=2 -d
```
Finally, test load-balancing between the two services `test_whoami_1` and `test_whoami_2`:
```shell
curl -H Host:whoami.docker.localhost http://127.0.0.1
```
```yaml
Hostname: ef194d07634a
IP: 127.0.0.1
IP: ::1
IP: 172.17.0.4
IP: fe80::42:acff:fe11:4

## The Træfik Quickstart (Using Docker)
In this quickstart, we'll use [Docker compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose) to create our demo infrastructure.
To save some time, you can clone [Træfik's repository](https://github.com/containous/traefik) and use the quickstart files located in the [examples/quickstart](https://github.com/containous/traefik/tree/master/examples/quickstart/) directory.
### 1 — Launch Træfik — Tell It to Listen to Docker
Create a `docker-compose.yml` file where you will define a `reverse-proxy` service that uses the official Træfik image:
```yaml
version: '3'
services:
reverse-proxy:
image: traefik #The official Traefik docker image
command: --api --docker #Enables the web UI and tells Træfik to listen to docker
ports:
- "80:80" #The HTTP port
- "8080:8080" #The Web UI (enabled by --api)
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock #So that Traefik can listen to the Docker events
```
**That's it. Now you can launch Træfik!**
Start your `reverse-proxy` with the following command:
```shell
docker-compose up -d reverse-proxy
```
You can open a browser and go to [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080) to see Træfik's dashboard (we'll go back there once we have launched a service in step 2).
### 2 — Launch a Service — Træfik Detects It and Creates a Route for You
Now that we have a Træfik instance up and running, we will deploy new services.
Edit your `docker-compose.yml` file and add the following at the end of your file.
```yaml
# ...
whoami:
image: emilevauge/whoami #A container that exposes an API to show it's IP address
labels:
- "traefik.frontend.rule=Host:whoami.docker.localhost"
```
The above defines `whoami`: a simple web service that outputs information about the machine it is deployed on (its IP address, host, and so on).
Start the `whoami` service with the following command:
```shell
docker-compose up -d whoami
```
Go back to your browser ([http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080)) and see that Træfik has automatically detected the new container and updated its own configuration.
When Traefik detects new services, it creates the corresponding routes so you can call them ... _let's see!_ (Here, we're using curl)
```shell
curl -H Host:whoami.docker.localhost http://127.0.0.1
```
_Shows the following output:_
```yaml
Hostname: 8656c8ddca6c
IP: 172.27.0.3
#...
```
### 3 — Launch More Instances — Traefik Load Balances Them
Run more instances of your `whoami` service with the following command:
```shell
docker-compose up -d --scale whoami=2
```
Go back to your browser ([http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080)) and see that Træfik has automatically detected the new instance of the container.
Finally, see that Træfik load-balances between the two instances of your services by running twice the following command:
```shell
curl -H Host:whoami.docker.localhost http://127.0.0.1
```
The output will show alternatively one of the followings:
```yaml
Hostname: 8656c8ddca6c
IP: 172.27.0.3
#...
```
```yaml
Hostname: 8458f154e1f1
IP: 172.27.0.4
# ...
```
### 4 — Enjoy Træfik's Magic
Now that you have a basic understanding of how Træfik can automatically create the routes to your services and load balance them, it might be time to dive into [the documentation](https://docs.traefik.io/) and let Træfik work for you! Whatever your infrastructure is, there is probably [an available Træfik backend](https://docs.traefik.io/configuration/backends/available) that will do the job.
Our recommendation would be to see for yourself how simple it is to enable HTTPS with [Træfik's let's encrypt integration](https://docs.traefik.io/user-guide/examples/#lets-encrypt-support) using the dedicated [user guide](https://docs.traefik.io/user-guide/docker-and-lets-encrypt/).
