Overview

Tokkio ingress gatekeeps all requests flowing into the backend server. It provides features like routing, authentication, authorization, session management, etc.

The structure of the ingress can be divided into two components:

1. Nginx Ingress: Nginx reverse proxy mainly handles session management. It distributes and validates client tokens against the server. The session behavior can be configured to fixed-duration mode or auto-refresh mode depending on the use cases.

2. Lifecycle Manager: This module provides an HTTP endpoint to probe the health of the underlying application and manages the traces for the observability stack.
