Re: Confusion about how to connect to Kubernetes cluster remotely from client app
What prevents you from deploying the application within the same K8 environment as a pod? If the thick client and the servers are within the same network then you won't have any hurdles at all. That's the best approach. Otherwise, you need to a) expose K8 network if you want to connect from a thick client deployed outside or b) use a thin client that supports only SQL and key-value APIs at the moment. - Denis On Tue, Nov 12, 2019 at 12:07 AM camer314 wrote: > I am new to Ignite and am struggling to figure out how to connect my client > application to my Ignite cluster hosted in Azure Kubernetes. > > Effectively I want to remotely connect, that is, I dont want my client > machine to be in the topology, its probably not even in the same country, I > would like to connect (C# or REST) to an Ignite cluster and use both the > cache and compute features.

Re: Confusion about how to connect to Kubernetes cluster remotely from client app
Hello! You can surely use REST from .Net, but writing code for such use is left as exercise for reader. You can also use .Net thin client, with API & description available in docs: https://apacheignite-net.readme.io/docs/thin-client Regards, -- Ilya Kasnacheev ср, 13 нояб. 2019 г. в 01:43, camer314 : > Thanks Ilya, > > Am i able to use the .NET API in this way?

Re: Confusion about how to connect to Kubernetes cluster remotely from client app
Thanks Ilya, Am i able to use the .NET API in this way? Connecting to a remote cluster? I am finding the documentation of the configuration a little hard to understand in regards to the options for connection. In the Kubernetes YAML file I see ports for REST, SQL and thin clients, would you use the REST one for C#? You also mention I can use thin client, does that support compute? REST is perhaps the cleanest solution for us. -- Sent from: http://apache-ignite-users.70518.x6.nabble.com/
Re: Confusion about how to connect to Kubernetes cluster remotely from client app
Hello! Well, you have a multitude of options here: Thick client is not recommended since it is a part of topology and it may suffer in case your desktop becomes disconnected, for example. You can use REST all right. REST can execute services' methods, and you can write services to do anything that you need. Then, you can use thin client, or you can roll out your own API on top of Apache Ignite to be served from client or server nodes in the cluster and do whatever operations are necessary.
