Ingress basically allows outside internet traffic to kube cluster. Via ingress http traffic via port 80 & 443 can be allowed to enter the kube cluster and vice-versa. This further can be used for load balancing, front-end hosting, terminating SSL/TLS.

Internet -> Ingress -> Services (Kube cluster).

Ingress can be easily configured by mentioning the “type” directive within the service configuration file.

type: LoadBalancer

Once the service is deployed, the IP can be seen adjacent to “LoadBalancer Ingress” using kubectl describe services
