Hi APPC team, As part of "K8S based Cloud region support", new Multi-Cloud plugin is being added to talk to K8S based cloud regions to deploy VMs and containers.
Some workloads are immutable and hence Day0 configuration is good enough. Some workloads can be configurable after they are brought up. As we understand APPC (one of the roles) is meant for dynamic configuration of workloads that are brought up earlier on. Trying to understand whether anything else to be taken care in K8S plugin in Multi-Cloud to enable the dynamic configuration. 1. How does APPC know that new VNFs with various workloads are brought up? Note that a VNF can contain multiple workloads. For example, a security VNF may have FW and IPS workloads. Is there any existing interface between SO and APPC to take care of these notifications? 2. Is the expectation that any new instance of workload (either due to auto-restart and auto scale-out in the cloud region) be notified to APPC to start the configuration process. 3. In regards to configuration: Does it support both PUSH (push configuration to workloads) and PULL modes(let workload pull the configuration)? a. In case of PUSH: How does APPC know the IP address of each workload instance to apply configuration to? Does it read IP address information from A&AI (vserver)? 4. What NB API does it have to upload the configuration to APPC by user? a. Is the API granularity at the VNF or at the workload level? b. Does it support uploading incremental configuration? If so, how is it taken care (e2e view)? 5. Lastly, is there any use case that use APPC for dynamic configuration? Some of the use cases I know have hardcoded configuration. Please point out any demo if available. Appreciate any links/answers. Thanks Srini -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
