If you’re running containers in production today, you already know the pain: configuring Nginx or HAProxy manually, debugging weird routing issues at 2 AM, or watching your Kubernetes Ingress controller struggle with TLS, rate-limiting, or canary deployments. The old reverse-proxy world feels heavy, slow, and honestly outdated when you’re trying to move fast with microservices and cloud-native apps.
That’s where Traefik shines — and why thousands of DevOps engineers and platform teams are switching to it.Traefik is the modern, cloud-native edge router built for Docker, Kubernetes, and every major orchestrator. It auto-discovers your services, handles Let’s Encrypt certificates in seconds, supports middleware out of the box, and just works without endless config files. But here’s the catch: Traefik is powerful and simple only when you really understand it. One wrong provider setting or middleware order and you’re stuck scratching your head
That’s exactly why the Traefik Course Training and Certification by DevOpsSchool is getting so much love right now. It takes you from “What is Traefik?” to confidently running it in production — in just a few weeks.
