Ingress is basically just an evolution of the route concept in Kubernetes.
We started it there and have let it soak a bit since routes were in
production use and we had very clear goals.

An ingress controller in Kube is an Openshift Router.  The F5 router is a
controller that programs F5 to respond to routes.  The HAproxy router is
actually a controller that runs in each HAProxy pod and generates a config
file from a template - we call that a "template router" because it can be
used to generate Apache / NGINX / <config driven proxy> as needed.  We do
extensive security , performance, and reliability testing on the routers,
so think of them as rock solid versions of the ingress controllers in Kube.

The big things ingress does not do yet is security (making sure different
tenants can't steal each other's hostnames) and a few functional gaps (the
new A/B feature in Openshift).  Ben and Rajat have been working on
identifying those gaps for improving ingress to where we can rely on it in
a productized form.  We also want to do it in a way that folks get the
benefits of both - UI and CLI tooling that make it easy to work with
routes, but some of the more flexibility ingress could be capable of
(binding multiple services into the same ingress is something we do with
routes, but is more convenient for end users).

Hi.

Isn't the "router" also a ingress router?

What's the difference for you between the "router" and the "ingress".

Best regards

Actually - we're not deprecating or removing routers or the router.  We're
just adapting to also support ingress.  There will be a very long period
where both routes and ingress happily coexist.

Hello, list.

We have been running Origin since last November and i'd like to share some
experiences, pains and thoughts.

Our origin cluster has about 25 servers including masters,nodes and
routers. We have roughly 500 applications exposing services and a bunch of
HPA firing up containers all the time.

1) Resource consumption: i noticed during the day a increase of memory
consumption due multiple reloads, a lot of process keep running until the
connections is finished or OOM kill. Other issue regarding restarts is that
due to TCP SYN DROP iptables we are facing some high latencies.  What can
we do to reduce restart overhead ?

You seem to have several questions intertwined here, and I am by no means
an expert on this, but on the "lots of processes keep running" topic, you
may be hitting https <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1364870>
://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1364870>id
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1364870>=1364870
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1364870> (though this
manifests as more of a CPU consumption issue than a memory issue).   In
short, what we've seen is cases where haproxy connections are "orphaned",
so the old processes never exit -- they continuously think they have one or
two "jobs" left, but they never actually handle them.  I think this is
fixed in the latest 1.5.x release of haproxy, but have not had a chance to
test yet.


In 3.3 there are some more knobs you can set to limit the length of time
that an haproxy will stay around after a restart, you may wish to try
playing wit hthat... but the underlying bug is still there in 3.3.

Understood, i'll give it a try.






2) Metrics: Would be nice to pull some metrics from the routers, something
like general network i/o and per endpoint traffic, i found a prometheus
export but due to process restart the endpoint states are cleaned. HAProxy
1.6 have a fix for that (http://blog.haproxy.com/2015/10/14/

<http://blog.haproxy.com/2015/10/14/whats-new-in-haproxy-1-6/>). Do we have
plans to upgrade to 1.6 ? What kind of metrics do we have available today?

The lack of metrics is a problem, and there's no great answer to your
question/

There are no plans to go to 1.6 at the moment, but we do need to solce the
stats problem, and we need to solve the reload problem, so we may end up
moving.  But we are investigating upstream ingress and trying to get
support for that into OpenShift so we can migrate and deprecate the router.

Nice, i'd like to track this work, can you point me on the right direction?
