The goal of this Ingress controller is the assembly of a configuration file (nginx.conf). The main implication of this requirement is the need to reload NGINX after any change in the configuration file. _Though it is important to note that we don't reload Nginx on changes that impact only an `upstream` configuration (i.e Endpoints change when you deploy your app)_.
