Overview Providers
https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/providers/overview/
Configuration discovery in Traefik is achieved through Providers.
The providers are infrastructure components, whether orchestrators, container engines, cloud providers, or key-value stores. The idea is that Traefik queries the provider APIs in order to find relevant information about routing, and when Traefik detects a change, it dynamically updates the routes.
