knative-multitenancy's Introduction

Serverless multi-tenancy based on Istio (Service Mesh) functionality

The basic idea of this setup is to use Istio (Service Mesh) features to leverage a network based isolation for multiple tenants.

Architecture

Architecture

High level overview

  • The setup is enforcing istio mTLS while using AuthorizationPolicies to isolate workloads.
  • As Knative has different data-paths (via ingress-gateway, via activator, via ingress-gateway and activator or directly through the mesh) network isolation must be enforced on multiple places.
  • PeerAuthentication is used to enforce mTLS on all relevant namespaces.
  • knative-local-gateway is patched to enforce istio mTLS.
  • AuthorizationPolicy are in place to only allow tenant traffic. The namespace knative-serving has additional rules that filter traffic based on source namespaces and target hosts.

Setup (K8S with Kind)

Prerequisites

  • A kubernetes cluster with kubectl configured
  • Installed the following components:
# Knative Serving
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/knative/serving/releases/download/knative-v1.8.3/serving-crds.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/knative/serving/releases/download/knative-v1.8.3/serving-core.yaml

# Istio as networking layer
kubectl apply -l knative.dev/crd-install=true -f https://github.com/knative/net-istio/releases/download/knative-v1.8.1/istio.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/knative/net-istio/releases/download/knative-v1.8.1/istio.yaml

# Enable proxies in knative-serving
kubectl label namespace knative-serving istio-injection=enabled

# Restart containers to pick up the proxy
kubectl delete pod --all -n knative-serving

# Install the net-istio controller
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/knative/net-istio/releases/download/knative-v1.8.1/net-istio.yaml

Tenant setup (on Kind)

# Creating tenants
kubectl create ns tenant-1
kubectl create ns tenant-2
kubectl label namespace tenant-1 istio-injection=enabled
kubectl label namespace tenant-2 istio-injection=enabled

# Apply secured config
kubectl apply -f kind/config 

# Create kservices
kubectl apply -f kind/services/tenant-1
kubectl apply -f kind/services/tenant-2

Setup (OpenShift)

# Install Service Mesh
oc apply -f openshift/mesh-operators
oc apply -f openshift/mesh-config

# Install Serverless Operator
oc apply -f openshift/serverless-operator
oc apply -f openshift/serverless-config

# Integrate Service Mesh and Serverless
oc apply -f openshift/serverless-mesh-integration

Tenant setup (on OpenShift)

# Creating tenants
oc new-project tenant-1
oc new-project tenant-2

# Apply secured config
oc apply -f openshift/securing-config

# Create kservices
oc apply -f openshift/services/tenant-1
oc apply -f openshift/services/tenant-2

Verification

Use the script to verify the configuration

./hack/verify.sh
