Hello list, we are trying to use Artemis HA shared storage cluster which our SaaS application. In addition to consumers/producers internal to SaaS application itself, we also have thousands of external consumers/producers which are installed on client’s premises .
As broadcast is not possible on Google Cloud we are using static discovery configuration with these connectors: <connectors> <!-- Connector used to be announced through cluster connections and notifications --> <connector name="artemis-master">tcp://internal-cluster-dns-1:61616</connector> <connector name="artemis-slave">tcp://internal-cluster-dns2:61616</connector> </connectors> Our acceptors are also configured to use internal DNS of the hosts on both cluster nodes: <acceptor name="artemis">tcp://internal-cluster-dns-1:61616?tcpSendBufferSize=1048576;tcpReceiveBufferSize=1048576;amqpMinLargeMessageSize=102400;protocols=CORE,AMQP,STOMP,HORNETQ,MQTT,OPENWIRE;useEpoll=true;amqpCredits=10 00;amqpLowCredits=300;amqpDuplicateDetection=true;supportAdvisory=false;suppressInternalManagementObjects=false</acceptor> We don’t have issues with internal consumers/producers, however when we try to connect external consumers (via external IP), they are trying to connect via internal DNS which is probably set in the cluster topology packet. This is probably expected and by design, but my question is how do we correctly handle such case? We obviously do not want internal clients to be served via external IP because external traffic is expensive in the cloud and the performance would decrease dramatically. Even with static discovery we would like to have a possibility to expand our cluster in the future, i.e. use the topology so that clients are configured automatically. Do we need to have a split-DNS server so that external and internal clients will see different IP addresses? Or maybe it is possible to have the same node serving different acceptors on different ports and different DNS names? Any pointers are much appreciated. -- Best Regards, Vilius Šumskas Advantes technologies IT manager +370 614 75713
