Question

I am trying to connect my spring-boot api inside a kubernetes pod to an external database (a separate machine but within the local network), however when running, I get SQLNonTr

Answer 1

After hours of digging and reconfiguring, I finally get it to work, thanks to Xenwar from kubernetes group for pointing out the externalIP property, it turns out that i need to point my app to an external ip, in this case the database, here is the service object:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: db-con
spec:
  selector:
    app: api2
  ports:
    - name: http
      protocol: TCP
      port: 3306
      targetPort: 3306
  externalIPs:
    - 10.0.123.28
