What is this?
Ingress routes HTTP(S) from outside the cluster to Services via an Ingress controller.
Why should you care?
CloudVerse exposes api.cloudverse.io through Ingress + TLS, not raw NodePorts forever.
See it live — copy this example
Use AWS/Azure/GCP free tier or local Docker/Kind. Sketches and YAML are meant to be typed and adapted.
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata: { name: api }
spec:
rules:
- host: api.cloudverse.io
http:
paths:
- path: /
pathType: Prefix
backend:
service: { name: api, port: { number: 80 } }
What happened?
- Need an Ingress controller (nginx, ALB, AGIC).
- Terminate TLS with certs.
- Path vs host rules.
Practice next
- Install/use controller.
- Apply Ingress.
- curl with Host header.
- Add TLS secret.
- Split /v1 and /admin paths.
Remember
HTTP routing in. Controller required. TLS at edge.
CloudVerse Ingress host
api.cloudverse.io → api Service.
Outcome: Clean HTTPS entry.
