### AWS

In AWS we use an Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) to expose the NGINX Ingress controller behind a Service of `Type=LoadBalancer`.
Since Kubernetes v1.9.0 it is possible to use a classic load balancer (ELB) or
Please check the [elastic load balancing AWS details page](https://aws.amazon.com/es/elasticloadbalancing/details/)

#### Elastic Load Balancer - ELB

This setup requires to choose in which layer (L4 or L7) we want to configure the ELB:

- [Layer 4](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model#Layer_4:_Transport_Layer): use TCP as the listener protocol for ports 80 and 443.

#### Network Load Balancer (NLB)

This type of load balancer is supported since v1.9.0 as an ALPHA feature.

```console
kubectl patch deployment -n ingress-nginx nginx-ingress-controller --type='json' \
--patch="$(curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/master/deploy/patch-deployment.yaml)"
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/master/deploy/provider/aws/service-nlb.yaml
```

If the ingress controller uses RBAC run:

```console
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/master/deploy/provider/patch-service-with-rbac.yaml
```

If not run:

```console
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/master/deploy/provider/patch-service-without-rbac.yaml
```
