Container Service for Kubernetes:Advanced ALB Ingress configurations for registered clusters

Create an Ingress with a domain name

1. Use the following template to create a Deployment, a Service, and an Ingress. Requests to the domain name of the Ingress are forwarded to the Service.

   Clusters that run Kubernetes versions earlier than 1.19

2. Run the following command to access the application by using the specified domain name.

   Replace ADDRESS with the IP address of the related ALB instance. You can query the IP address by running the kubectl get ing command.

   curl -H "host: demo.domain.ingress.top" <ADDRESS>/hello

   Expected output:

   {"hello":"coffee"}

Create an Ingress without a domain name

1. The following template shows the configuration of the Ingress:
