Træfɪk

Build Status Docs Go Report Card Image Layer License Join the chat at https://traefik.herokuapp.com Twitter

Træfɪk is a modern HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer made to deploy microservices with ease. It supports several backends (Docker, Swarm, Mesos/Marathon, Consul, Etcd, Zookeeper, BoltDB, Rest API, file...) to manage its configuration automatically and dynamically.

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. 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:

  • domain api.domain.com will point the microservice api in your private network
  • path domain.com/web will point the microservice web in your private network
  • domain backoffice.domain.com will point the microservices backoffice in your private network, load-balancing between your multiple instances

But a microservices architecture is dynamic... Services are added, removed, killed or upgraded often, eventually several times a day.

Traditional reverse-proxies are not natively dynamic. You can't change their configuration and hot-reload easily.

Here enters Træfɪk.

Architecture

Træfɪk can listen to your service registry/orchestrator API, and knows each time a microservice is added, removed, killed or upgraded, and can generate its configuration automatically. Routes to your services will be created instantly.

Run it and forget it!

Features

  • It's fast
  • No dependency hell, single binary made with go
  • Rest API
  • Multiple backends supported: Docker, Mesos/Marathon, Consul, Etcd, and more to come
  • Watchers for backends, can listen change in backends to apply a new configuration automatically
  • Hot-reloading of configuration. No need to restart the process
  • Graceful shutdown http connections
  • Circuit breakers on backends
  • Round Robin, rebalancer load-balancers
  • Rest Metrics
  • Tiny official docker image included
  • SSL backends support
  • SSL frontend support (with SNI)
  • Clean AngularJS Web UI
  • Websocket support
  • HTTP/2 support
  • Retry request if network error
  • Let's Encrypt support (Automatic HTTPS)

Demo

Here is a demo of Træfɪk using Docker backend, showing a load-balancing between two servers, hot reloading of configuration, and graceful shutdown.
