Adaptor multiple environments #328

Closed gareth-bird closed 4 years ago

gareth-bird commented 4 years ago

Is there guidance on how you can use/configure the mixer adaptor to support multiple Apigee environments (say Dev, Integration, Test). In effect, this is a segregation / tenancy question.

'apigee-istio provision ...' creates a handler for one apigee environment. How could multiple apigee environments work within the context of a single istio control plane/mixer; run multi adaptors containers in -n istio-system?

Clearly istio doesn't currently have a model for soft multi tenancy, i.e. the idea of isolating different control planes in different namespaces isn't available, which means it's not clear how you'd setup multiple staging environments in a k8 cluster.

Any thoughts appreciated.

You actually have two options:

  1. Multi-tenant adapter: Use multiple handlers pointed at a single adapter service.
  2. Single-tenant adapter: Use multiple handlers and point each handler at a different adapter.

Either way should work, depending on your isolation needs.

Makes sense. Thank you for the timely reply Ganyo, really appreciated.
