title: Stripprefix Middleware in NGINX Ingress controller
body: <p>We have deployed Traefik 2.2 on our Kubernetes cluster with following ingress-route created to access our application. This configuration is working fine for us and is currently the same for our Production system as well.</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-yaml prettyprint-override"><code>apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1
  kind: IngressRoute
  metadata:
    name: application-xyz
  
  spec:
    tls: {}
    entryPoints:
      - web
      - websecure
    routes:
  
      - match: "HostRegexp(`application-xyz.com`) &amp;&amp; PathPrefix(`/`)"
  
        kind: Rule
        priority: 1
        services:
          - name: application-xyz-service
            port: 80

  <p>Question 1:
  We are now planning to migrate from Traefik to Nginx Ingress Controller. Is there any way we can replicate the same on Nginx similar to Traefik configuration. I'm unsure if I'm comparing this in the right way or not. Would be grateful if we can get any pointers.</p>
  
  <p>Question 2:
  We wish to achieve stripprefix functionality in Nginx but didn't find any helpful documentation. Any leads in this regard is highly appreciated.</p>
