Hi, Igniters I'm now discovering the issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-13204 and wondering what is a case that requires a client to be able to discover a cluster?
I believe that discovery is a goal of kubernetes itself. We could assign a DNS name for a Service [1] and then any request to the Service will be forwarded to any of Ignite pods behind it. So there is no need to extract pods IP to provide the connection. For example, I've configured a k8s service with name "ignite" and port mapping 10800:9888. Then just connect to it with sqlline by a string "ignite:9888". I think that it's OK that clients should be configured with those settings as they aren't changed during cluster live. Also k8s provides SessionAffinity [2] to guarantee forwarding traffic from one client to the same pod for every request. So there is no need to provide IP for a specific pod if a state is required. Maybe I'm missing something about this feature? Could somebody provide more details for this task? Below is the example config and connection string: apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata: name: ignite spec: ports: - port: 9888 targetPort: 10800 selector: app: ignite ./bin/sqlline.sh --verbose=true -u jdbc:ignite:thin://ignite:9888 0: jdbc:ignite:thin://ignite:9888> [1] https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/ [2] https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#proxy-mode-userspace
