For the OpenStack Stein release, the Octavia team is excited to announce
|
|
support for: Octavia flavors, TLS client authentication, backend
|
|
re-encryption, and object tags.
|
|
|
|
* Octavia flavors allow an operator to define "flavors" of load balancers,
|
|
such as "active-standby" or "single" using the amphora driver, that
|
|
configure the load balancer topology. The Amphora driver also supports
|
|
specifying the nova compute flavor to use for the load balancer amphora.
|
|
* TLS client authentication allows the listener to request a client
|
|
certificate from users connecting to the load balancer. This certificate
|
|
can then be checked against a CA certificate and optionally a certificate
|
|
revocation list. New HTTP header insertions allow passing client
|
|
certificate information to the backend members, while new L7 rules
|
|
allow you to take custom actions based on the content of the client
|
|
certificate.
|
|
* Backend re-encryption allows users to configure pools to initiate TLS
|
|
connections to the backend member servers. This enables load balancers
|
|
to authenticate and encrypt connections from the load balancer to the
|
|
backend member server.
|
|
* Object tags allow users to assign a list of strings to the load balancer
|
|
objects that can then be used for advanced API list filtering.
