title: "Traefik Kubernetes Services Documentation"
description: "Learn how to configure routing and load balancing in Traefik Proxy to reach Services, which handle incoming requests. Read the technical documentation."
---
A `TraefikService` is a custom resource that sits on top of the Kubernetes Services. It enables advanced load-balancing features such as a [Weighted Round Robin](#weighted-round-robin) load balancing or a [Mirroring](#mirroring) between your Kubernetes Services.
Services configure how to reach the actual endpoints that will eventually handle incoming requests. In Traefik, the target service can be either a standard [Kubernetes service](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/)—which exposes a pod—or a TraefikService. The latter allows you to combine advanced load-balancing options like:
- [Weighted Round Robin load balancing](#weighted-round-robin).
- [Mirroring](#mirroring).
## Weighted Round Robin
The WRR is able to load balance the requests between multiple services based on weights. The WRR `TraefikService` allows you to load balance the traffic between Kubernetes Services and other instances of `TraefikService` (another WRR service -, or a mirroring service).

#### Stickiness on multiple levels
When chaining or mixing load-balancers (e.g. a load-balancer of servers is one of the "children" of a load-balancer of services),
for stickiness to work all the way, the option needs to be specified at all required levels.
Which means the client needs to send a cookie with as many key/value pairs as there are sticky levels.
Sticky sessions, for stickiness to work all the way, must be specified at each load-balancing level.
For instance, in the example below, there is a first level of load-balancing because there is a (Weighted Round Robin) load-balancing of the two `whoami` services,
and there is a second level because each whoami service is a `replicaset` and is thus handled as a load-balancer of servers.
```yaml tab="IngressRoute"
apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
kind: IngressRoute
metadata:
name: ingressroutebar
namespace: apps
spec:
entryPoints:
- web
routes:
- match: Host(`example.com`) && PathPrefix(`/foo`)
kind: Rule
services:
- name: wrr1
namespace: apps
kind: TraefikService
```
```yaml tab="TraefikService WRR with 2 level of stickiness"
apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
kind: TraefikService
metadata:
name: wrr1
namespace: apps
spec:
weighted:
services:
- name: whoami1
kind: Service
port: 80
weight: 1
# Stickiness level2 (on the Kubernetes service)
sticky:
cookie:
name: lvl2
- name: whoami2
kind: Service
weight: 1
port: 80
# Stickiness level2 (on the Kubernetes service)
sticky:
cookie:
name: lvl2
# Stickiness level2 (on the WRR service)
sticky:
cookie:
name: lvl1
```
In the example above, to keep a session open with the same server, the client would then need to specify the two levels within the cookie for each request, e.g. with curl:
```bash
# Assuming `10.42.0.6` is the IP address of one of the replicas (a pod then) of the `whoami1` service.
curl -H Host:example.com -b "lvl1=default-whoami1-80; lvl2=http://10.42.0.6:80" http://localhost:8000/foo
```
## Mirroring
The mirroring is able to mirror requests sent to a service to other services.
A mirroring service allows you to send the trafiic to many services together:
- The **main** service receives 100% of the traffic,
- The **mirror** services receive a percentage of the traffic.
For example, to upgrade the version of your application. You can set the service that targets current version as the **main** service, and the service of the new version a **mirror** service.
Thus you can start testing the behavior of the new version keeping the current version reachable.
The mirroring `TraefikService` allows you to reference Kubernetes Services and other instances of `TraefikService` (another WRR service -, or a mirroring service).
Please note that by default the whole request is buffered in memory while it is being mirrored.
See the `maxBodySize` option in the example below for how to modify this behavior.
