lets say, we have two independent Kubernetes clusters Cluster 1 & Cluster 2
, Each of them has two replicas of same application Pod. Like Cluster 1 : Pod A & Pod B
and Cluster 2 : Pod C & Pod D
. Application code in Pod A(client) wants to connect to any Pod running in cluster 2 via NodePort/Loadbalancer service over TCP protocol where the response would carry a UDP Port stating the client(Pod A) to initiate a new UDP connection on supplied UDP port for further communication.
To summarize the need:
1.Pod A -> Pod C over TCP, and response carries a UDP port
2.Pod A -> Pod C over UDP port captured in response
But here, while making UDP call, the request is going to other Pod i.e., Pod D. SessionAffinity set to clientIP is not helping. I want both TCP and UDP calls to fall on same pod.
