Kubernetes Microservices Architecture with Ingress and Data Layer

kubernetes · architecture diagram.

About This Architecture

Production-ready Kubernetes microservices architecture featuring Ingress-based traffic routing to API, Auth, and Worker services with replicated pod deployments. External traffic flows through the Ingress Controller to service endpoints, with each microservice backed by horizontally-scaled deployments across multiple pods. StatefulSets manage Redis for caching and PostgreSQL for persistence, both with dedicated PersistentVolumeClaims ensuring data durability. This pattern demonstrates Kubernetes-native separation of concerns using ConfigMaps for configuration and Secrets for sensitive credentials. Fork this diagram on Diagrams.so to customize namespace boundaries, add HPA autoscaling, or integrate your service mesh.

People also ask

How do I architect microservices in Kubernetes with Ingress routing and persistent databases?

Use an Ingress Controller to route traffic to Services fronting replicated Deployments for each microservice. Deploy databases like PostgreSQL and Redis as StatefulSets with PersistentVolumeClaims for data durability.
