Trying Ignite with Kubertenes deployment options.

  1. Is it zone-aware? Cannot find any docs & configuration about this.
  2. Can I connect the Kubernetes cluster via an external client? I'd like to connect via C# client.

Thank you!

  1. Broadly speaking, Ignite assumes all your nodes are close to one another. You could make it aware of multiple zones by using custom affinity functions, but it's not straight-forward. There are also third-party solutions (I work for GridGain who provide one) that support data centre replication, etc. that would work in this situation
  2. Yes. I would suggest that thick clients should be part of your Kubernetes infrastructure (since they become part of the Ignite cluster topology), but you can connect a thin client just by opening the right ports. You can use Kubernetes load balancing / round robin to connect to any node
