cf-k8s-networking

Routing and networking for Cloud Foundry running on Kubernetes.

Deploying

CF-K8s-Networking is a component of CF-for-K8s. To deploy CF-for-K8s reference the following documentation:

Architecture

Architecture Diagram of CF-K8s-Networking

  • RouteController: Watches the Kubernetes API for Route CRs and translates the Route CRs into Istio Virtual Service CRs and Kubernetes Services accordingly to enable routing to applications deployed by Cloud Foundry.

  • Istio: CF-K8s-Networking currently depends on Istio.

    • Istio serves as both our gateway router for ingress networking, replacing the role of the Gorouters in CF for VMs, and service mesh for (eventually) container-to-container networking policy enforcement.
    • We provide a manifest for installing our custom configuration for Istio, here.
    • Istio provides us with security features out of the box, such as:
      • Automatic Envoy sidecar injection for system components and application workloads
      • Sidecar Kubernetes resources that can limit egress traffic from workload Pods
      • Transparent mutual TLS (mTLS) everywhere
      • (Eventually) app identity certificates using SPIFFE issued by Istio Citadel
    • Istio should be treated as an "implementation detail" of the platform and our reliance on it is subject to change
    • Istio config is located in cf-for-k8s and it's managed by the cf-k8s-networking team.
