Configuring GZIP Data Compression for a LoadBalancer Ingress
LoadBalancer ingresses support data compression, which reduces the size of files to be transferred, improves file transfer efficiency, and reduces the bandwidth needed for the transmission.
Notes and Constraints
- This feature is available in the following versions:
- v1.23: v1.23.14-r0 or later
- v1.25: v1.25.9-r0 or later
- v1.27: v1.27.6-r0 or later
- v1.28: v1.28.4-r0 or later
- Versions later than v1.28
- To create a cluster using commands, ensure kubectl is used. For details, see Connecting to a Cluster Using kubectl.
Using the CCE Console
- Log in to the CCE console and click the cluster name to access the cluster console.
- In the navigation pane, choose Services & Ingresses. Click the Ingresses tab and click Create Ingress in the upper right corner.
- Configure ingress parameters. In this example, only mandatory parameters are listed. For details about how to configure other parameters, see Creating a LoadBalancer Ingress on the Console.
- Name: can be the same as the workload name.
- Load Balancer: Select a load balancer type and creation mode.
- In this example, only dedicated load balancers are supported.
- This section uses an existing load balancer as an example. For details about the parameters for automatically creating a load balancer, see load balancers.
- Listener
- External Protocol: HTTP and HTTPS are available. This section uses HTTP as an example.
- External Port: port number that is open to the ELB service address. The port number is configurable.

- Forwarding Policy: Specify a domain name matching rule and the target Service to be accessed. When the access address of a request matches the forwarding policy (a forwarding policy consists of a domain name and URL, for example, 10.117.117.117:80/helloworld), the request will be forwarded to the target Service for processing.
- Click OK.
