Sticky Session
Voyager 3.2.0+ can configure sticky connections in 2 modes. By applying annotation to an Ingress resource, you can configure all backends in that ingress to use sticky session. Or you can apply annotation to a service and configure backends using that service to use sticky session.
ingress.appscode.com/sticky-session annotations is deprecated in voyager 4.0.0+ and removed in 8.0.1+. Use ingress.appscode.com/affinity instead.
Sticky Ingress
Applying annotation ingress.appscode.com/affinity to Ingress will configure all backends to support sticky session.
apiVersion: voyager.appscode.com/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: test-ingress
namespace: default
annotations:
ingress.appscode.com/affinity: 'cookie'
spec:
rules:
- host: foo.bar.com
http:
paths:
- backend:
service:
name: s1
port:
number: 80
- host: bar.foo.com
http:
paths:
- backend:
service:
name: s2
port:
number: 80
- host: tcp.bar.com
tcp:
port: 9898
backend:
service:
name: tcp-service
port:
number: 50077
For the above ingress, all three backend connections will be sticky.
Sticky Service
Applying annotation ingress.appscode.com/affinity to a service configures any backend
that uses that service to use sticky connection. As an example, the following Ingress will only
configure sticky connections for backends that use s1 Service.
kind: Service
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: s1
namespace: default
annotations:
ingress.appscode.com/affinity: 'cookie'
spec:
selector:
app: app
ports:
- name: http
protocol: TCP
port: 80
targetPort: 9376
- name: ops
protocol: TCP
port: 5050
targetPort: 5089
apiVersion: voyager.appscode.com/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: test-ingress
namespace: default
spec:
rules:
- host: foo.bar.com
http:
paths:
- path: /admin
backend:
service:
name: s1 # Sticky, since service s1 is annotated
port:
number: 5050
- path: /
backend:
service:
name: s1 # Sticky, since service s1 is annotated
port:
number: 80
- host: bar.foo.com
http:
paths:
- backend:
service:
name: s2 # Not sticky
port:
number: 80
- host: tcp.bar.com
tcp:
port: 9898
backend:
service:
name: tcp-service # Not sticky
port:
number: 50077
