Kuberenetes - Custom domain ingress - kubernetes

Question

I have a cluster IP service and a Ingress. What should my custom domain name point to if I need to route traffic using Ingress? Backend is plain http.
Do I have to create a AWS Loadbalancer with target groups pointing to k8s nodes? And use domain alias pointing to aws loadbalancer? I was reading this K8s article and they're pointing to a subdomain.
Ingress.yaml:
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
creationTimestamp: "2022-08-05T00:50:41Z"
generation: 1

app: testing

namespace: default

Yes you have to create the Load Balancer however that will auto managed by the K8s service.
You can use the Nginx or other ingress controller as per requirement.
You can checkout this Nice official doc from AWS : https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/network-load-balancer-nginx-ingress-controller-eks/
Once you deploy the Nginx ingress controller it will manage the ingress resource and the Nginx controller will get the public LB.
Example :
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: example-ingress
annotations:
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "false"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect: "false"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /
spec:
tls:
- hosts:
- anthonycornell.com
secretName: tls-secret
rules:
- host: anthonycornell.com
http:
paths:
- path: /apple
backend:
serviceName: apple-service
servicePort: 5678
- path: /banana
backend:
serviceName: banana-service
servicePort: 5678
