I explain my case.
I have three pods running in my Kubernetes. In one pod, there is a Flask framework running. In the two other pods, there is a Java application with a REST API. ( The Java application is the same on the two pods ).
My pod with Flask has to ask the two pods with the Java application individually using HTTP requests.
I have created a service that points toward my two pods with Java Application. When my pod with Flask uses the service to ask the two others, I just have one response.
How could I target my pods individually ? Is it possible in my case to get endpoints from the pod with Flask ? I could have x pods with my Java Application.
Best regards,
Nico.
kubectl get ep --all-namespacesyou dont need a k8s service if you are accessing things internally , you can use endpoints directly , but this is not recommneded , as the pods maybe re-created by RS
therefore , in this case you can define two clusterIP services for these pods , given that you have labeled your pods differently
IMO, the right way to do this is to have 3 deployments each managing your pods individually each with a replica of 1.
If the Java apps are the only ones that you need to connect to from the Flask app you can expose those deployments with 2 different services that will manage the endpoints. Services are supposed to manage the endpoints unless you are trying to connect to an external endpoint.
