+  Using Ambassador Ingress Controller with Minikube
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+[Ambassador](https://getambassador.io/) allows access to Kubernetes services running inside Minikube. Ambassador can be
+configured via both, [Ingress](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/ingress/) resources and
+[Mapping](https://www.getambassador.io/docs/latest/topics/using/intro-mappings/) resources.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Minikube version higher than v1.10.1
+- kubectl
+
+## Configuring Ambassador
+
+### Installing Ambassador
+
+Ambassador is available as a Minikube
+[addon]((https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/tree/master/deploy/addons/ambassdor)). Install it by running -
+
+```shell script
+minikube addons enable ambassador
+```
+
+This will install Ambassador in the namespace `ambassador`.
+
+### Accessing Ambassador via `minikube tunnel`
+
+The service `ambassador` is of type `LoadBalancer`. To access this service, run a
+[Minikube tunnel](https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/handbook/accessing/#using-minikube-tunnel) in a separate terminal.
+
+```shell script
+minikube tunnel
+```
+
+You can now access Ambassador at the external IP allotted to the `ambassador` service.
+Get the external IP with the following command:
+```shell script
+kubectl get service ambassador -n ambassador 
+NAME         TYPE           CLUSTER-IP      EXTERNAL-IP     PORT(S)                      AGE
+ambassador   LoadBalancer   10.104.86.124   10.104.86.124   80:31287/TCP,443:31934/TCP   77m
+```
+
+### Configuring via Ingress resource
+
+In this tutorial, we'll configure Ambassador via an Ingress resource. To configure via `IngressClass` resource, read
+this [post](https://blog.getambassador.io/new-kubernetes-1-18-extends-ingress-c34abdc2f064).
+
+First, let's create a Kubernetes deployment and service which we will talk to via Ambassador.
+
+```shell script
+kubectl create deployment hello-minikube --image=k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4
+kubectl expose deployment hello-minikube --port=8080
+```
+
+This service `hello-minikube` is of type `ClusterIP` and is not accessible from outside the cluster.
+
+Now, create an Ingress resource which exposes this service at the path `/hello/`
+
+**Note:** The Ingress resource must have the annotation `kubernetes.io/ingress.class: ambassador` for Ambassador to
+pick it up.
+
+`hello-ingress.yaml`
+```yaml
+apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
+kind: Ingress
+metadata:
+  annotations:
+    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: ambassador
+  name: test-ingress
+spec:
+  rules:
+  - http:
+      paths:
+      - path: /hello/
+        backend:
+          serviceName: hello-minikube
+          servicePort: 8080
+```
+Run the command: `kubectl apply -f hello-ingress.yaml`
+
+That's it! You can now access your service via Ambassador:
+```shell script
+curl http://<Ambassdor's External IP'/hello/>
+```
+
+**Note:** For more advanced Ingress configurations with Ambassador, like TLS termination and name-based virtual hosting,
+see Ambassador's [documentation](https://www.getambassador.io/docs/latest/topics/running/ingress-controller/).
+
+### Configuring via Mapping resource
+
+While Ambassador understands the Ingress spec, the Ingress spec does not leverage all of Ambassador's features. The
+[Mapping](https://www.getambassador.io/docs/latest/topics/using/intro-mappings/) resource is Ambassador's core resource
+that maps a target backend service to a given host or prefix.
+
+Let's create another Kubernetes deployment and service that we will expose via Ambassador -
+```shell script
+kubectl create deployment mapping-minikube --image=k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4
+kubectl expose deployment mapping-minikube --port=8080
+```
+
+This service `mapping-minikube` is of type `ClusterIP` and is not accessible from outside the cluster.
+
+Now, let's create a mapping that exposes this service via Ambassador at the path `/hello-mapping/`
+
+`hello-mapping.yaml`
+```yaml
+apiVersion: getambassador.io/v2
+kind:  Mapping
+metadata:
+  name:  mapping-minikube
+spec:
+  prefix: /hello-mapping/
+  service: mapping-minikube.default:8080
+```
+Run the command: `kubectl apply -f hello-mapping.yaml`
+
+That's it! You can now access your service via Ambassador:
+```shell script
+curl http://<Ambassdor's External IP'/hello-mapping/>
+```
+
+**Note:** Read more about mappings in Ambassador's
+[documentation](https://www.getambassador.io/docs/latest/topics/using/mappings/).
