Lab 2 - Expose the application to the world
###########################################
The application has been deployed now we need to publish it to the world.
1. Next we need to create the **Origin Pools** which will point to our new app services.
Go to **Multi-Cloud App Connect** -> **Manage** -> **Load Balancers** -> **Origin Pools**
We will need to create 5 **Origin Pools** each represeting the services that need to be accessed by users, create the **Origin Pools** based on the bellow data.
a) Click **Add Origin Pool**
.. table::
:widths: auto
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
Object Value
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
**Name** arcadia-frontend-appstack
**Port** 80
**Health Checks** Click **Add Item** -> In the new dropdown choose **$$namespace$$/arcadia-hc**
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
b) Under **Origin Servers** click **Add Item** -> Fill the bellow data -> **Apply** -> **Save and Exit**
.. table::
:widths: auto
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
Object Value
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
**Select Type of Origin Server** K8s Service Name of Origin Server on given Sites
**Service Name** arcadia-frontend.default
**Site** system/$$ceOnPrem.clusterName$$
**Select Network on the site** vK8s Networks on Site
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
c) Repeat steps **a** and **b** for the other application services, the only thing that needs to be changed is the **Name** and **Service Name**.
The additional services are:
.. table::
:widths: auto
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
Name Service Name
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
arcadia-login-appstack arcadia-login.default
arcadia-stock-transaction-appstack arcadia-stock-transaction.default
arcadia-stocks-appstack arcadia-stocks.default
arcadia-users-appstack arcadia-users.default
========================================== ====================================================================================================================
.. raw:: html
5. The last step will be to configure the **HTTP Load Balancer** that will enable to expose through the F5 XC platform the Kubernetes internal application.
a) Go to **Multi-Cloud App Connect** -> **Manage** -> **Load Balancers** -> **HTTP Load Balancers** -> **Add HTTP Load Balancer** -> Fill the bellow data
.. table::
:widths: auto
==================================== =================================================================================================
Object Value
==================================== =================================================================================================
**Name** arcadia-ce-appstack-lb
**Domains** arcadia-ce-appstack-$$makeId$$.workshop.emea.f5se.com
**Load Balancer Type** HTTP
**Automatically Manage DNS Records** Enable
**Origin Pools** Click **Add Item**, for the **Origin Pool** select $$namespace$$/arcadia-frontend-appstack -> Apply
==================================== =================================================================================================
b) On the same page go to **Routes** and click **Configure** -> Repeat this 4 times for each service ( **Add Item** -> Fill in the bellow -> **Apply** )
.. table::
:widths: auto
================================ ========================================================================================================
**Prefix** **Origin Pools**
================================ ========================================================================================================
/v1/login $$namespace$$/arcadia-login-appstack
/v1/stockt $$namespace$$/arcadia-stock-transaction-appstack
/v1/stock/ $$namespace$$/arcadia-stocks-appstack
/v1/user $$namespace$$/arcadia-users-appstack
================================ ========================================================================================================
c) We are almost done, click **Apply** -> **Save and Exit**
