Managing Public Network Access for a Microservice Engine
The microservice engine supports public network access, which helps expand the microservice architecture from a closed environment on the intranet to an open ecosystem on the public network. This not only meets the requirements of Internet services and cross-cloud collaboration, but also improves the system elasticity, scalability, and DR capabilities through the openness of the technical architecture. In addition, based on the security and governance mechanisms, public network access is balanced between openness and controllability, providing key technical support for the business model of internal and external linkage in enterprise digital transformation.
Restrictions
- Microservice engines with security authentication disabled do not have the authentication and authorization capabilities. Opening those engines to the public network may cause security risks and increases the system vulnerability. For example, data assets such as configurations and service information may be stolen.
- Do not use this function in a production environment or a network environment with high security requirements.
Binding an EIP
Microservice engines that are bound with EIPs can be accessed from the public network.
- Log in to ServiceStage.
- Choose Cloud Service Engine > Engines.
- Select the target microservice engine from the Microservice Engine drop-down list in the upper part of the page.
- In the Network Configuration and Security area, click Bind EIP.
- Read the security risk prompt in the displayed dialog box and select I understand the security risks.
- In the EIP drop-down list, select the EIP to be bound. You can only select an EIP in the same enterprise project as the microservice engine.
- Click OK.
Unbinding an EIP
If an EIP has been bound to a microservice engine, you can unbind the EIP from the exclusive microservice engine to disable the public network access to the engine.
- Log in to ServiceStage.
- Choose Cloud Service Engine > Engines.
- Select the target microservice engine from the Microservice Engine drop-down list in the upper part of the page.
- In the Network Configuration and Security area, click Unbind EIP.
- In the displayed dialog box, click OK.
