Clusterlink: Enabling Fine-Grained and High-Speed Application-Level Connectivity Spanning Clusters - Pravein Govindan Kannan, IBM While current application deployments tend to span multiple clusters across cloud, rapid application connectivity across clusters still remains an infrastructural concern which tends to remain static and changes often require processes such as compliance, identity, asset protection, etc. However, what application requires is programmable, fine-grained and secure network connectivity between application modules which enables applications to be scaled beyond clusters without requiring infrastructural changes to the underlying platform. We propose ClusterLink, which is designed as a building block for providing application-level multi-cloud connectivity for cloud applications. The main design principles of Clusterlink are : Programmable, Open & Extensible and Connection-orientedness. ClusterLink is realized as an in-cluster gateway responsible for handling application traffic according to definitions and policies specified through declarative APIs. In this talk, I will explain the internal design rationale of ClusterLink, provide a live demo of ClusterLink’s fine-grained connectivity, illustrating use-cases, and future developments.
