Traefik

Traefik is a smart tool that helps make sure your apps work well. It sits between your devices and the servers hosting your apps, like a traffic controller. It takes the requests from your devices and sends them to the right server, making sure everything runs smoothly.
Traefik also balances the work across many servers, so not one server gets too busy. This helps your apps run faster and stay reliable, even when lots of people are using them.

It is configured with cloudfare to request and let's you encrypt wildcard certificate *.office.kh3group.com used by most of the locally hosted services In KH3s IT infrastructure. Furthermore it is set up automatically to renew the wildcard certificate on 3-month schedule, this ensures it is always up to date. Also it acts as a reverse proxy, working with pinhole that acts as a local DNS to ensure that locally hosted services are reachable by their host name e.g: you can access KH3s IT documentation on any device on the KH3 local network by visiting docs.office.kh3group.com
