## Ingress and canary releases
- Let's see how to implement *canary releases*
- The example here will use Traefik v1
(which is obsolete)
- It won't work on your Kubernetes cluster!
(unless you're running an oooooold version of Kubernetes)
(and an equally oooooooold version of Traefik)
- We've left it here just as an example!
---
## Canary releases
- A *canary release* (or canary launch or canary deployment) is a release that will process only a small fraction of the workload
- After deploying the canary, we compare its metrics to the normal release
- If the metrics look good, the canary will progressively receive more traffic
(until it gets 100% and becomes the new normal release)
- If the metrics aren't good, the canary is automatically removed
- When we deploy a bad release, only a tiny fraction of traffic is affected
---
## Various ways to implement canary
- Example 1: canary for a microservice
- 1% of all requests (sampled randomly) are sent to the canary
- the remaining 99% are sent to the normal release
- Example 2: canary for a web app
- 1% of users are sent to the canary web site
- the remaining 99% are sent to the normal release
- Example 3: canary for shipping physical goods
- 1% of orders are shipped with the canary process
- the remaining 99% are shipped with the normal process
- We're going to implement example 1 (per-request routing)
---
## Canary releases with Traefik v1
- We need to deploy the canary and expose it with a separate service
- Then, in the Ingress resource, we need:
- multiple `paths` entries (one for each service, canary and normal)
- an extra annotation indicating the weight of each service
- If we want, we can send requests to more than 2 services

class: extra-details
## Other ingress controllers
*Just to illustrate how different things are ...*
- With the NGINX ingress controller:
- define two ingress ressources
<br/>
(specifying rules with the same host+path)
- add `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/canary` annotations on each
- With Linkerd2:
- define two services
- define an extra service for the weighted aggregate of the two
- define a TrafficSplit (this is a CRD introduced by the SMI spec)
---
class: extra-details
## We need more than that
What we saw is just one of the multiple building blocks that we need to achieve a canary release.
We also need:
- metrics (latency, performance ...) for our releases
- automation to alter canary weights
(increase canary weight if metrics look good; decrease otherwise)
- a mechanism to manage the lifecycle of the canary releases
(create them, promote them, delete them ...)

# Exposing HTTP services with Ingress resources
- HTTP services are typically exposed on port 80
- Service = layer 4 (TCP, UDP, SCTP)
(and 443 for HTTPS)
- works with every TCP/UDP/SCTP protocol
- `NodePort` services are great, but they are *not* on port 80
- doesn't "see" or interpret HTTP
(by default, they use port range 30000-32767)
- Ingress = layer 7 (HTTP)
- How can we get *many* HTTP services on port 80? 🤔
- only for HTTP
- can route requests depending on URI or host header
- can handle TLS
---
## Various ways to expose something on port 80
## Why should we use Ingress resources?
- Service with `type: LoadBalancer`
A few use-cases:
*costs a little bit of money; not always available*
- URI routing (e.g. for single page apps)
- Service with one (or multiple) `ExternalIP`
`/api` → service `api:5000`
*requires public nodes; limited by number of nodes*
everything else → service `static:80`
- Service with `hostPort` or `hostNetwork`
- Cost optimization
*same limitations as `ExternalIP`; even harder to manage*
(because individual `LoadBalancer` services typically cost money)
- Ingress resources
*addresses all these limitations, yay!*
- Automatic handling of TLS certificates

## Deploying pods listening on port 80
## Accepting connections on port 80 (and 443)
- We want our ingress load balancer to be available on port 80
- Web site users don't want to specify port numbers
- The best way to do that would be with a `LoadBalancer` service
(e.g. "connect to https://blahblah.whatever:31550")
... but it requires support from the underlying infrastructure
- Our ingress controller needs to actually be exposed on port 80
- Instead, we are going to use the `hostNetwork` mode on the Traefik pods
(and 443 if we want to handle HTTPS)
- Let's see what this `hostNetwork` mode is about ...
- Let's see how we can achieve that!

## Deploying pods listening on port 80
- We are going to run Traefik in Pods with `hostNetwork: true`
(so that our load balancer can use the "real" port 80 of our nodes)
- Traefik Pods will be created by a DaemonSet
(so that we get one instance of Traefik on every node of the cluster)
- This means that we will be able to connect to any node of the cluster on port 80
.warning[This is not typical of a production setup!]
---
## Doing it in production
- When running "on cloud", the easiest option is a `LoadBalancer` service
- When running "on prem", it depends:
- [MetalLB] is a good option if a pool of public IP addresses is available
- otherwise, using `externalIPs` on a few nodes (2-3 for redundancy)
- Many variations/optimizations are possible depending on our exact scenario!

## Other techniques to expose port 80
- We could use pods specifying `hostPort: 80`
... but with most CNI plugins, this [doesn't work or requires additional setup](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/23920)
- We could use a `NodePort` service
... but that requires [changing the `--service-node-port-range` flag in the API server](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/kube-apiserver/)
- We could create a service with an external IP

(figuring out the IP address and adding it to the service)
