1.0.0-preview2
Pre-release
Pre-release
Skupper relies on a router to transport traffic across the VAN.
This release replaces the Apache Qpid Dispatch router with a fork of that router named Skupper router.
The development of Skupper router will focus on the Skupper use case.
WARNING: This release of Skupper is incompatible with all previous releases.
To avoid disruption, you must upgrade all sites in your VAN (service network) to this release as described below
Highlights:
- New skupper network status command to display overview of the skupper network.
- New policy system as described in Securing a service network
- TLS support for services using the HTTP2 protocol.
- The skupper router no longer restarts when creating a link.
This release of Skupper includes some Skupper Gateway changes. We recommend removing any gateways before upgrading, and recreating those gateways after a successful upgrade.
- Only one gateway per user/host. Previously, a user could create multiple gateways, this is no longer possible. If you require multiple gateways per host, create a new user for each gateway.
- When exposing a service using a gateway, the service type is not supported for this release, but will be available in future releases. To workaround this issue use a container:
skupper gateway expose <address> <host> <port...> -type [docker|podman]
To upgrade a site to this release of Skupper:
$ skupper update
