Abandonded? #233
Comments
You might want to checkout https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/ingress-for-anthos which is the newest way to do i believe |
That's interesting but I am afraid of what I read in the pricing section:
From what I know, an Anthos license is at least $10,000 per month... that's quite a crazy jump from what it costs with the current approach... |
Thanks everyone for the comments. Many customers are using this, and we continue to collect feedback: #117 https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/ingress-for-anthos is our new approach. Please try it and provide feedback :) |
This is a real shame as many good GKE features are now been locked away in a subscription we have no chance of ever being able to afford. The global HTTP LB's are one of my favourite GCP features and its a shame to see companies unable to use it. This tool still seems to be lacking some very useful features with not too much active development and I am not sure if I want to adopt something that is actively being replaced as part of our core infrastructure. |
Really disappointing development. I remember this guide https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/multi-cluster-ingress had a warning that said something like "kubemci will be replaced with a native kubectl command". Whatever happened to that? Now that url redirects to the anthos guide. EDIT: Found it https://web.archive.org/web/20191104054821/https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/multi-cluster-ingress |
Hi All, I am from the GKE Networking team and can speak for the direction of these products. kubemci is no longer actively maintained. It was originally brought to the public as a PoC but other controller-based approaches were deemed as superior and so kubemci was never productized as a supported GCP offering. The successor to kubemci is Ingress for Anthos. It is actually not $10K per 100 vCPU as some articles would have you believe as there are two Anthos licensing tiers - Anthos on-prem and Anthos on GCP (which is significantly less expensive). It is not published yet but we will be offering a free trial period that extends past the GA date in which customers can use it free of charge. If costs are perceived as an issue, please contact your account team and we can discuss more. No features of the GCLB are being locked away or made unavailable. Ingress for GKE (the single-cluster variant) continue on as a supported Ingress controller for managing public and private HTTP load balancers. Ingress for GKE is included as a part of the GKE cluster. |
Thanks for the detailed response @mark-church. Question: you mention Secondly, is there public pricing available for Anthos on GCP, or should we work with our reps for more info? |
@mhamrah there isn't public pricing posted yet so in the mean time please work with your reps. Sorry I'll clarify, when I say other controller-based approaches I just mean a single network controller for load balancing (which Ingress for Anthos is) as opposed to a federation of network controllers (like kubemci). |
If this project is abandoned then please do the responsible thing and clearly mark it as such on the project README. |
@nikhiljindal -- can you update the README to forward people to the docs? |
RIP Another staff engineer that didn't get their wings. |
It appears active development on this project has stopped. Is Kubefed the new approach?
