Managing traffic in Kubernetes and Docker environments used to be simple when you had just one or two services. Fast forward to 2025 — most companies run hundreds of microservices, multiple clusters, and hybrid clouds. Suddenly, your old Nginx or HAProxy setup feels slow, hard to update, and impossible to manage automatically.
That’s where Traefik shines. It’s the cloud-native edge router and reverse proxy that automatically discovers services, handles Let’s Encrypt certificates, supports HTTP/3, and works seamlessly with Docker, Kubernetes, and every major cloud provider.
The problem? Traefik is powerful but has a steep learning curve if you try to figure it out alone from scattered blog posts and GitHub issues.
Here’s the good news: DevOpsSchool’s Traefik Course Training and Certification gives you a clear, step-by-step path from beginner to expert in just 6–8 weeks — with real-world labs and direct mentorship.
