Morphology
ingress = in + gress
The computing sense is domain-specific jargon (e.g., Kubernetes 'ingress' rules) and its technical meaning is not derivable by an average B1 learner from the morphemes 'in-' and 'gress'.
Etymology
Ingress comes from in- 'into' and gress 'step', so think of data 'stepping into' a system. That's why in computing an ingress is a rule or service that lets outside network traffic enter internal applications.
