Hello,
I currently have several docker services attached to a specific host port, I’ve been asked to move them behind a proxy and only have each service only accessible behind a single apache service.
I’ve tried looking for a configuration that will allow me to create 1 proxy service
and several docker services in 1 network.
I’ve had no luck finding a solution where I can specify 1 IP address to each service (not the container). I
thought I could keep the default network mesh used by docker to do round robin for each container in the service, and use the reverse proxy to communicate to each service with a specified IP address.
Here is a flow
OUTWORLD ----> PROXY>>>>Service_1 / Service_2 / Service_3
A service_x could have n containers using the docker default bridge network and doing the load balancing and assignment.
My understanding was I could do an overlay network between the proxy and the services ( not the containers in the service). Is that correct?
