Steps ​

Bondy provides a Peer Discovery feature which enables a Bondy node to discover other nodes using a defined discovery type and form a cluster automatically. This is very handy when deploying using orchestration technologies like Kubernetes.

Check this example K8s manifest.

In the example bondy.conf file you will find the following snippet that enables Peer Discovery and uses bondy_peer_discovery_dns_agent as type.

cluster.parallelism = 2
cluster.peer_port = ${BONDY_CLUSTER_PEER_PORT}
cluster.peer_discovery.enabled = on
cluster.peer_discovery.automatic_join = on
cluster.peer_discovery.polling_interval = 10s
cluster.peer_discovery.timeout = 5s
cluster.peer_discovery.type = bondy_peer_discovery_dns_agent
cluster.peer_discovery.config.service_name = ${BONDY_SERVICE_NAME}
cluster.tls.enabled = off

For more information about this options check the Complete Configuration Reference section.

Default Port Numbers ​

Regardless of the installation method, Bondy exposes the following ports by default:

If you want to change those port numbers checkout the Configuration Reference.
