Set up a proxyless gRPC service mesh on GKE

This pages describes how to deploy an example proxyless gRPC client and server to a Cloud Service Mesh.

Prerequisites

As a starting point, this guide assumes that you have already:

Requirements

This section lists the requirements for supported services:

  • gRPC C++ - version 1.68.1 or later
  • gRPC Java - version 1.68.2 or later
  • gRPC Go - version 1.68.0 or later
  • gRPC Python - version 1.68.1 or later

Set up the Proxyless gRPC Service

This guide outlines two methods for setting up a proxyless gRPC service within your service mesh:

Method 1: Manual Configuration

This method requires you to manually configure the necessary components for your proxyless gRPC service.

  • InitContainer: Use an initContainer within your pod's specification to execute the Traffic Director gRPC Bootstrap generator. This generator produces the required configuration for your service.
  • Volume Mount: Mount a volume that contains the generated configuration from the initContainer. This ensures your application can access the necessary settings.
  • Environment Variables: Include the appropriate environment variables to enable CSM Observability metrics emission from your application. These metrics provide valuable insights into your service's performance.

Method 2: Automatic using Proxyless Bootstrap Injector

Instead of manually configuring your proxyless gRPC service, you can opt for a simplified approach using the Proxyless Bootstrap Injector.

This feature automates the setup process, making it easier to deploy your service. To enable it, add the label mesh.cloud.google.com/csm-injection=proxyless to your namespace.

By adding this label to your namespace, the injector takes care of all the necessary configurations, saving you valuable time and effort.

If you need more granular control you can also apply this label directly to individual pods. This lets you to override the namespace-level setting and customize the injection behavior on a per-pod basis.

By following either of these methods, you can successfully establish a proxyless gRPC service within your service mesh.

Manual

  1. Apply the Namespace

    kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
---
kind: Namespace
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
 name: proxyless-example
EOF

  2. Deploy a gRPC service:

C++

kubectl apply -f - <<EOF

The output is similar to

namespace/proxyless-example created
service/helloworld created
deployment.apps/psm-grpc-server created

  1. Verify that the Pods have been created:

    kubectl get pods -n proxyless-example

    The output is similar to

    NAME                               READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
psm-grpc-server-65966bf76d-2wwxz   1/1     Running   0          13s
psm-grpc-server-65966bf76d-nbxd2   1/1     Running   0          13s

    Wait for all Pods to be ready and have the Status Running before continuing.

  2. Deploy a HTTPRoute:

    kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: HTTPRoute
metadata:
  name: app1
  namespace: proxyless-example
spec:
  parentRefs:
  - name: helloworld
    namespace: proxyless-example
    kind: Service
    group: ""
  rules:
  - backendRefs:
    - name: helloworld
      port: 50051
EOF

    This command creates an HTTPRoute called app1 and sends all RPCs to the helloworld service.

    Note that the parentRef service is also helloworld which means our HTTPRoute is attached to this service and will process all RPCs addressed to this service. In case of proxyless gRPC it means any client sending RPCs on a gRPC channel for target xds:///helloworld.proxyless-example.svc.cluster.local:50051.

  3. Verify that the new app1 HTTPRoute has been created:

    kubectl get httproute -n proxyless-example

    The output is similar to

    NAME   HOSTNAMES   AGE
app1               72s

Set up the Proxyless gRPC Client

This sections describes how to use a gRPC client to verify that Cloud Service Mesh is routing traffic correctly in the mesh.

Just like configuring the service, you have two choices for setting up the client:

Method 1: Manual Configuration

This approach involves manually setting up the necessary components for your client, mirroring the manual service configuration.

Method 2: Automatic using Proxyless Bootstrap Injector

Alternatively, you can use the automatic injector to streamline the client setup process. This simplifies configuration and reduces manual intervention. This is achieved by applying the label on the namespace.

Both options provide the necessary capabilities for your client. Choose the method that best suits your needs and preferences.

Manual

Run a gRPC client and direct it to use the routing configuration specified by the HTTPRoute:
