Ingress provides HTTP/HTTPS routing to multiple services using a single load balancer, with features like path-based routing, SSL termination, and virtual hosting. Understanding Kubernetes Ingress The Problem Without Ingress: Service 1 → LoadBalancer ($$$) Service 2 → LoadBalancer ($$$) Service 3 → LoadBalancer ($$$) Total: 3 load balancers, high cost!
