Step 3 - Set up the connectivity proxy

DSAG Technologietage 2022 Category: 👀

Goal 🎯

This step covers the setup of the connectivity proxy in your Kyma cluster to enable the access to on premise resources.

Step 3.1 - Enable the Connectivity Service Entitlement

In order to configure the Connectivity Proxy within the Kyma Runtime you must first make sure that the Connectivity Service Entitlement is present within your subaccount. This can be accomplished by

  • Within your global account…
  • Choose Entitlements -> Entity Assignments
  • Search for Connectivity Service
  • Choose connectivity_proxy for the plan
  • Choose Add 1 Service Plan
  • Choose Save

Step 3.2 - Provision the Service in the Kyma Runtime

he next step involves creating a service instance of the Connectivity Proxy and then a service binding. Once the creation of the service binding is detected by the Kyma Control Plane, the Connectivity Proxy will be provisioned in the runtime into the namespace kyma-system:

  • Within your desired namespace
  • Choose Service Management -> Catalog
  • Search for and select the Connectivity tile
  • Choose Add
  • If desired provide a name, otherwise the auto-generated name can be used
  • Choose the Plan connectivity_proxy
  • The option to add parameters can be skipped
  • Choose Create

After that, create the service binding:

  • Within the same namespace
  • Choose Service Management -> Instances
  • Choose the Service Instance created in previous step
  • Choose the option Add Service Binding
  • If desired provide values for the Name and Secret Name, otherwise the auto-generated values can be used
  • Choose Create

The Kyma Control Plane should now provision the Connectivity Proxy. This will generate the pod connectivity-proxy-0 which can be found by running:

kubectl get pods -n kyma-system

📝 Tip - The provisioning is not a synchronous action. You creation request will be picked up by the Kyma reconciler that runs periodically. It might take 5-10 minutes until you see the pod up and running.

From within the Kyma runtime the proxy will be accessible using the URL connectivity-proxy.kyma-system.svc.cluster.local:20003.

Summary

🎉 Congratulations - You've now completed the setup of the Connectivity Proxy!
