Step 6: Create LoadBalancer

All containers are running inside a private network and cannot be accessed externally. To do so one can create a load balancer. The key fields in the load balancer form are
Type: Select Application Load Balancer.
Container Port: This is the port on which the application running inside the container is running. In this quick start we used nginx:latest, Container Port for sample application is 80.
External Port: This is the port we want the users to access the application. We will choose 80 because we are going to apply a certificate to the LB
Application Mode : Choose Docker
Health Check : use / for this case because the sample app returns 200 OK at this path.
Certificate: Choose a certificate that was created as described in the Prerequisites section 
Go under Devops-->Containers --> EKS/Native and click on the service we are creating. Under that click on the Load balancer tab and configure the load balancer
​
Secure Load Balancer
