Chapter 7. Deploying embedded Service Registry storage in Infinispan

This chapter explains how to configure Service Registry storage in an embedded Infinispan cache.

Important

Service Registry storage in Infinispan is a Technology Preview feature only. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production.

These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process. For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see https://access.redhat.com/support/offerings/techpreview.

Prerequisites

7.1. Configuring Service Registry with embedded Infinispan storage on OpenShift

This section explains how to configure Infinispan cache-based storage for Service Registry on OpenShift. This storage option is based on Infinispan community Java libraries embedded in the Quarkus-based Service Registry server. You do not need to install a separate Infinispan server using this storage option. This option is suitable for development or demonstration only, and is not suitable for production environments.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. In the OpenShift Container Platform web console, log in using an account with cluster administrator privileges.
  2. Click Installed Operators > Red Hat Integration - Service Registry > ApicurioRegistry > Create ApicurioRegistry.

  3. Paste in the following custom resource definition: 

    apiVersion: apicur.io/v1alpha1
kind: ApicurioRegistry
metadata:
  name: example-apicurioregistry
spec:
  configuration:
    persistence: "infinispan"
    infinispan: # Currently uses embedded version of Infinispan
      clusterName: "example-apicurioregistry"
      # ^ Optional
  4. Click Create and wait for the Service Registry route to be created on OpenShift.

  5. Click Networking > Route to access the new route for the Service Registry web console. For example: 

    http://example-apicurioregistry.my-project.my-domain-name.com/
