I'm using NGIX for some years, mostly for some small websites (PHP), but also as reverse proxy for ASP.NET Core apps. I like that has a small footprint and open source version was enough for what I needed. It's not difficult to setup and upstream servers are pretty good for load balancing.
Of course I've read "And make no mistake about it: F5 is committed to keeping the NGINX brand and open source technology alive", and probably will continue for years to come this way, but still, this may be a good chance to look with different eyes to Traefik.
I didn't use it for anything, yet, but I'll try it very soon, because from what I've read and seen, it seems better fit for microservices / Docker / K8s clusters and the like. Looks like better integrated with lots of backends and excellent features (like Let's Encrypt automatic support + metrics).
I'm not saying bye to NGIX, but welcome Traefik. See this picture, isn't it cool?
