Automatic merge from submit-queue Add ProviderUid support to Federated Ingress This PR (along with GLBC support [here](https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress/pull/278)) is a proposed fix for #39989. The Ingress controller uses a configMap reconciliation process to ensure that all underlying ingresses agree on a unique UID. This works for all of GLBC's resources except firewalls which need their own cluster-unique UID. This PR introduces a ProviderUid which is maintained and synchronized cross-cluster much like the UID. We chose to derive the ProviderUid from the cluster name (via md5 hash). Testing here is augmented to guarantee that configMaps are adequately propagated prior to Ingress creation. ```release-note Federated Ingress over GCE no longer requires separate firewall rules to be created for each cluster to circumvent flapping firewall health checks. ``` cc @madhusudancs @quinton-hoole
Cluster Federation
Kubernetes Cluster Federation enables users to federate multiple Kubernetes clusters. Please see the user guide and the admin guide for more details about setting up and using the Cluster Federation.
Building Kubernetes Cluster Federation
Please see the Kubernetes Development Guide
for initial setup. Once you have the development environment setup
as explained in that guide, you also need to install jq
Building cluster federation artifacts should be as simple as running:
make build
You can specify the docker registry to tag the image using the KUBE_REGISTRY environment variable. Please make sure that you use the same value in all the subsequent commands.
To push the built docker images to the registry, run:
make push
To initialize the deployment run:
(This pulls the installer images)
make init
To deploy the clusters and install the federation components, edit the
${KUBE_ROOT}/_output/federation/config.json file to describe your
clusters and run:
make deploy
To turn down the federation components and tear down the clusters run:
make destroy
Ideas for improvement
-
Continue with
destroyphase even in the face of errors.The bash script sets
set -e errexitwhich causes the script to exit at the very first error. This should be the default mode for deploying components but not for destroying/cleanup.
