Canary Rollout Kubernetes Objects

Before starting

  1. Please make sure you have read the doc of about deploying helm chart.

  2. Make sure you have already enableld the kruise-rollout addon.

% vela addon enable kruise-rollout
Addon: kruise-rollout enabled Successfully.
  1. Please make sure one of the ingress controllers is available in your Kubernetes cluster. If not, you can install one in your cluster by enable the ingress-nginx addon:
vela addon enable ingress-nginx

Please refer this to get the gateway's access address.

You also can choose to install traefik addon.

  1. Please make sure the version of Vela CLI tool >=1.5.0-alpha.1, some commands such as rollback rely on the new version.

Access the gateway endpoint with the specific host.

Canary Release

Modify the image tag, from v1 to v2, as follows:

The configuration strategy of kruise-rollout trait means: The first batch of Canary releases 20% Pods, and 20% traffic imported to the new version, require manual confirmation before subsequent releases are completed.

Check the status of applciation:

    Traits:
      ✅ scaler      ✅ gateway: No loadBalancer found, visiting by using 'vela port-forward canary-demo'
      ❌ kruise-rollout: Rollout is in step(1/1), and you need manually confirm to enter the next step

The application's status is runningWorkflow that means the application's rollout process has not finished yet.

Access the gateway endpoint again. You will find out there is about 20% chance to meet Demo: v2 result.

$ curl -H "Host: canary-demo.com" <ingress-controller-address>/version
Demo: V2

Continue rollout process

After verify the success of the canary version through business-related metrics, such as logs, metrics, and other means, you can resume the workflow to continue the process of rollout.

vela workflow resume canary-demo

Access the gateway endpoint again multi times. You will find out the chance to meet result Demo: v2 is highly increased, almost 90%.

$ curl -H "Host: canary-demo.com" <ingress-controller-address>/version
Demo: V2

Canary validation successful, full release

In the end, you can resume again to finish the rollout process.

vela workflow resume canary-demo

Access the gateway endpoint again multi times. You will find out the result always is Demo: v2.

$ curl -H "Host: canary-demo.com" <ingress-controller-address>/version
Demo: V2

Canary verification failed, rollback

If you want to cancel the rollout process and rollback the application to the latest version, after manually check. You can rollback the rollout workflow:

You should suspend the workflow before rollback:

$ vela workflow suspend canary-demo
Rollout default/canary-demo in cluster  suspended.
Successfully suspend workflow: canary-demo

Then rollback:

$ vela workflow rollback canary-demo
Application spec rollback successfully.
Application status rollback successfully.
Rollout default/canary-demo in cluster  rollback.
Successfully rollback rolloutApplication outdated revision cleaned up.

Access the gateway endpoint again. You can see the result always is Demo: V1.

$ curl -H "Host: canary-demo.com" <ingress-controller-address>/version
Demo: V1

Please notice: rollback operation in middle of a runningWorkflow will rollback to latest succeed revision which is v1 in this case. Image a scenario, you deploy a successful v1 and canary rollout to v2, but you find some error in this version, then you continue to rollout to v3 directly. Error still exists, application is unhealthy then you decide to rollback. When you execute rollback workload will let application rollback to version v1.
