OpenShift Network
As we know, networking can be the cause of big trouble if it is not well designed. From a traditional perspective, the network is the dorsal spine of every infrastructure. Networking equipment such as routers, modems, switches, firewalls, Web Application Firewalls (WAFs), Intrusion Detection Systems/Intrusion Prevention Systems (IDSs/IPSs), proxies, and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) needs to be totally integrated, deployed, and maintained using best practices to ensure high performance and reliable network infrastructure. In this chapter, we will discuss important concepts related to networking on OpenShift that you need to take into consideration to make the best decisions for your case.
This chapter covers the following topics:
- OpenShift networking
- Network policies
- What is an Ingress controller?
- Types of routes
