Chapter 5. Setting up Data Grid cluster transport Data Grid requires a transport layer so nodes can automatically join and leave clusters. The transport layer also enables Data Grid nodes to replicate or distribute data across the network and perform operations such as re-balancing and state transfer. 5.1. Default JGroups stacks Data Grid provides default JGroups stack files, default-jgroups-*.xml , in the default-configs directory inside the infinispan-core-14.0.21.Final-redhat-00001.jar file. File name Stack name Description default-jgroups-udp.xml udp Uses UDP for transport and UDP multicast for discovery. Suitable for larger clusters (over 100 nodes) or if you are using replicated caches or invalidation mode. Minimizes the number of open sockets. default-jgroups-tcp.xml tcp Uses TCP for transport and the MPING protocol for discovery, which uses UDP multicast. Suitable for smaller clusters (under 100 nodes) only if you are using distributed caches because TCP is more efficient than UDP as a point-to-point protocol. default-jgroups-kubernetes.xml kubernetes Uses TCP for transport and DNS_PING for discovery. Suitable for Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift nodes where UDP multicast is not always available. default-jgroups-ec2.xml ec2 Uses TCP for transport and aws.S3_PING for discovery. Suitable for Amazon EC2 nodes where UDP multicast is not available. Requires additional dependencies. default-jgroups-google.xml google Uses TCP for transport and GOOGLE_PING2 for discovery. Suitable for Google Cloud Platform nodes where UDP multicast is not available. Requires additional dependencies. default-jgroups-azure.xml azure Uses TCP for transport and AZURE_PING for discovery. Suitable for Microsoft Azure nodes where UDP multicast is not available. Requires additional dependencies. Additional resources JGroups Protocols 5.2. Cluster discovery protocols Data Grid supports different protocols that allow nodes to automatically find each other on the network and form clusters. There are two types of discovery mechanisms that Data Grid can use: Generic discovery protocols that work on most networks and do not rely on external services. Discovery protocols that rely on external services to store and retrieve topology information for Data Grid clusters. For instance the DNS_PING protocol performs discovery through DNS server records. Note Running Data Grid on hosted platforms requires using discovery mechanisms that are adapted to network constraints that individual cloud providers impose. Additional resources JGroups Discovery Protocols JGroups cluster transport configuration for Data Grid 8.x (Red Hat knowledgebase article) 5.2.1. PING PING, or UDPPING is a generic JGroups discovery mechanism that uses dynamic multicasting with the UDP protocol. When joining, nodes send PING requests to an IP multicast address to discover other nodes already in the Data Grid cluster. Each node responds to the PING request with a packet that contains the address of the coordinator node and its own address. C=coordinator's address and A=own address. If no nodes respond to the PING request, the joining node becomes the coordinator node in a new cluster. PING configuration example <PING num_discovery_runs="3"/> Additional resources JGroups PING 5.2.2. TCPPING TCPPING is a generic JGroups discovery mechanism that uses a list of static addresses for cluster members. With TCPPING, you manually specify the IP address or hostname of each node in the Data Grid cluster as part of the JGroups stack, rather than letting nodes discover each other dynamically. TCPPING configuration example <TCP bind_port="7800" /> <TCPPING timeout="3000" initial_hosts="USD{jgroups.tcpping.initial_hosts:hostname1[port1],hostname2[port2]}" port_range="0" num_initial_members="3"/> Additional resources JGroups TCPPING 5.2.3. MPING MPING uses IP multicast to discover the initial membership of Data Grid clusters. You can use MPING to replace TCPPING discovery with TCP stacks and use multicasing for discovery instead of static lists of initial hosts. However, you can also use MPING with UDP stacks. MPING configuration example <MPING mcast_addr="USD{jgroups.mcast_addr:239.6.7.8}" mcast_port="USD{jgroups.mcast_port:46655}" num_discovery_runs="3" ip_ttl="USD{jgroups.udp.ip_ttl:2}"/> Additional resources JGroups MPING 5.2.4. TCPGOSSIP Gossip routers provide a centralized location on the network from which your Data Grid cluster can retrieve addresses of other nodes. You inject the address ( IP:PORT ) of the Gossip router into Data Grid nodes as follows: Pass the address as a system property to the JVM; for example, -DGossipRouterAddress="10.10.2.4[12001]" . Reference that system property in the JGroups configuration file. Gossip router configuration example <TCP bind_port="7800" /> <TCPGOSSIP timeout="3000" initial_hosts="USD{GossipRouterAddress}" num_initial_members="3" /> Additional resources JGroups Gossip Router 5.2.5. JDBC_PING JDBC_PING uses shared databases to store information about Data Grid clusters. This protocol supports any database that can use a JDBC connection. Nodes write their IP addresses to the shared database so joining nodes can find the Data Grid cluster on the network. When nodes leave Data Grid clusters, they delete their IP addresses from the shared database. JDBC_PING configuration example <JDBC_PING connection_url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database_name" connection_username="user" connection_password="password" connection_driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/> Important Add the appropriate JDBC driver to the classpath so Data Grid can use JDBC_PING. Additional resources JDBC_PING JDBC_PING Wiki 5.2.6. DNS_PING JGroups DNS_PING queries DNS servers to discover Data Grid cluster members in Kubernetes environments such as OKD and Red Hat OpenShift. DNS_PING configuration example <dns.DNS_PING dns_query="myservice.myproject.svc.cluster.local" /> Additional resources JGroups DNS_PING DNS for Services and Pods (Kubernetes documentation for adding DNS entries) 5.2.7. Cloud discovery protocols Data Grid includes default JGroups stacks that use discovery protocol implementations that are specific to cloud providers. Discovery protocol Default stack file Artifact Version aws.S3_PING default-jgroups-ec2.xml org.jgroups.aws:jgroups-aws 2.0.1.Final GOOGLE_PING2 default-jgroups-google.xml org.jgroups.google:jgroups-google 1.0.0.Final azure.AZURE_PING default-jgroups-azure.xml org.jgroups.azure:jgroups-azure 2.0.0.Final Providing dependencies for cloud discovery protocols To use aws.S3_PING , GOOGLE_PING2 , or azure.AZURE_PING cloud discovery protocols, you need to provide dependent libraries to Data Grid. Procedure Add the artifact dependencies to your project pom.xml . You can then configure the cloud discovery protocol as part of a JGroups stack file or with system properties. Additional resources JGroups aws.S3_PING JGroups GOOGLE_PING2 JGroups azure.AZURE_PING 5.3. Using the default JGroups stacks Data Grid uses JGroups protocol stacks so nodes can send each other messages on dedicated cluster channels. Data Grid provides preconfigured JGroups stacks for UDP and TCP protocols. You can use these default stacks as a starting point for building custom cluster transport configuration that is optimized for your network requirements. Procedure Do one of the following to use one of the default JGroups stacks: Use the stack attribute in your infinispan.xml file. <infinispan> <cache-container default-cache="replicatedCache"> <!-- Use the default UDP stack for cluster transport. --> <transport cluster="USD{infinispan.cluster.name}" stack="udp" node-name="USD{infinispan.node.name:}"/> </cache-container> </infinispan> Use the addProperty() method to set the JGroups stack file: GlobalConfiguration globalConfig = new GlobalConfigurationBuilder().transport() .defaultTransport() .clusterName("qa-cluster") //Uses the default-jgroups-udp.xml stack for cluster transport. .addProperty("configurationFile", "default-jgroups-udp.xml") .build(); Verification Data Grid logs the following message to indicate which stack it uses: Additional resources JGroups cluster transport configuration for Data Grid 8.x (Red Hat knowledgebase article) 5.4. Customizing JGroups stacks Adjust and tune properties to create a cluster transport configuration that works for your network requirements. Data Grid provides attributes that let you extend the default JGroups stacks for easier configuration. You can inherit properties from the default stacks while combining, removing, and replacing other properties. Procedure Create a new JGroups stack declaration in your infinispan.xml file. Add the extends attribute and specify a JGroups stack to inherit properties from. Use the stack.combine attribute to modify properties for protocols configured in the inherited stack. Use the stack.position attribute to define the location for your custom stack. Specify the stack name as the value for the stack attribute in the transport configuration. For example, you might evaluate using a Gossip router and symmetric encryption with the default TCP stack as follows: <infinispan> <jgroups> <!-- Creates a custom JGroups stack named "my-stack". --> <!-- Inherits properties from the default TCP stack. --> <stack name="my-stack" extends="tcp"> <!-- Uses TCPGOSSIP as the discovery mechanism instead of MPING --> <TCPGOSSIP initial_hosts="USD{jgroups.tunnel.gossip_router_hosts:localhost[12001]}" stack.combine="REPLACE" stack.position="MPING" /> <!-- Removes the FD_SOCK2 protocol from the stack. --> <FD_SOCK2 stack.combine="REMOVE"/> <!-- Modifies the timeout value for the VERIFY_SUSPECT2 protocol. --> <VERIFY_SUSPECT2 timeout="2000"/> <!-- Adds SYM_ENCRYPT to the stack after VERIFY_SUSPECT2. --> <SYM_ENCRYPT sym_algorithm="AES" keystore_name="mykeystore.p12" keystore_type="PKCS12" store_password="changeit" key_password="changeit" alias="myKey" stack.combine="INSERT_AFTER" stack.position="VERIFY_SUSPECT2" /> </stack> </jgroups> <cache-container name="default" statistics="true"> <!-- Uses "my-stack" for cluster transport. --> <transport cluster="USD{infinispan.cluster.name}" stack="my-stack" node-name="USD{infinispan.node.name:}"/> </cache-container> </infinispan> Check Data Grid logs to ensure it uses the stack. Reference JGroups cluster transport configuration for Data Grid 8.x (Red Hat knowledgebase article) 5.4.1. Inheritance attributes When you extend a JGroups stack, inheritance attributes let you adjust protocols and properties in the stack you are extending. stack.position specifies protocols to modify. stack.combine uses the following values to extend JGroups stacks: Value Description COMBINE Overrides protocol properties. REPLACE Replaces protocols. INSERT_AFTER Adds a protocol into the stack after another protocol. Does not affect the protocol that you specify as the insertion point. Protocols in JGroups stacks affect each other based on their location in the stack. For example, you should put a protocol such as NAKACK2 after the SYM_ENCRYPT or ASYM_ENCRYPT protocol so that NAKACK2 is secured. INSERT_BEFORE Inserts a protocols into the stack before another protocol. Affects the protocol that you specify as the insertion point. REMOVE Removes protocols from the stack. 5.5. Using JGroups system properties Pass system properties to Data Grid at startup to tune cluster transport. Procedure Use -D<property-name>=<property-value> arguments to set JGroups system properties as required. For example, set a custom bind port and IP address as follows: Note When you embed Data Grid clusters in clustered Red Hat JBoss EAP applications, JGroups system properties can clash or override each other. For example, you do not set a unique bind address for either your Data Grid cluster or your Red Hat JBoss EAP application. In this case both Data Grid and your Red Hat JBoss EAP application use the JGroups default property and attempt to form clusters using the same bind address. 5.5.1.

System Property Description Default Value Required/Optional jgroups.bind.address Bind address for cluster transport. SITE_LOCAL Optional jgroups.bind.port Bind port for the socket. 7800 Optional jgroups.mcast_addr IP address for multicast, both discovery and inter-cluster communication.

Using external JGroups stacks Reference external files that define custom JGroups stacks in infinispan.xml files. Procedure Put custom JGroups stack files on the application classpath. Alternatively you can specify an absolute path when you declare the external stack file. Reference the external stack file with the stack-file element. <infinispan> <jgroups> <!-- Creates a "prod-tcp" stack that references an external file. --> <stack-file name="prod-tcp" path="prod-jgroups-tcp.xml"/> </jgroups> <cache-container default-cache="replicatedCache"> <!-- Use the "prod-tcp" stack for cluster transport. --> <transport stack="prod-tcp" /> <replicated-cache name="replicatedCache"/> </cache-container> <!-- Cache configuration goes here. --> </infinispan> You can also use the addProperty() method in the TransportConfigurationBuilder class to specify a custom JGroups stack file as follows: GlobalConfiguration globalConfig = new GlobalConfigurationBuilder().transport() .defaultTransport() .clusterName("prod-cluster") //Uses a custom JGroups stack for cluster transport. .addProperty("configurationFile", "my-jgroups-udp.xml") .build(); In this example, my-jgroups-udp.xml references a UDP stack with custom properties such as the following: Custom UDP stack example <config xmlns="urn:org:jgroups" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:org:jgroups http://www.jgroups.org/schema/jgroups-4.2.xsd"> <UDP bind_addr="USD{jgroups.bind_addr:127.0.0.1}" mcast_addr="USD{jgroups.udp.mcast_addr:239.0.2.0}" mcast_port="USD{jgroups.udp.mcast_port:46655}" tos="8" ucast_recv_buf_size="20000000" ucast_send_buf_size="640000" mcast_recv_buf_size="25000000" mcast_send_buf_size="640000" bundler.max_size="64000" ip_ttl="USD{jgroups.udp.ip_ttl:2}" diag.enabled="false" thread_naming_pattern="pl" thread_pool.enabled="true" thread_pool.min_threads="2" thread_pool.max_threads="30" thread_pool.keep_alive_time="5000" /> <!-- Other JGroups stack configuration goes here. --> </config> Additional resources org.infinispan.configuration.global.TransportConfigurationBuilder 5.8. Using custom JChannels Construct custom JGroups JChannels as in the following example: GlobalConfigurationBuilder global = new GlobalConfigurationBuilder(); JChannel jchannel = new JChannel(); // Configure the jchannel as needed. JGroupsTransport transport = new JGroupsTransport(jchannel); global.transport().transport(transport); new DefaultCacheManager(global.build()); Note Data Grid cannot use custom JChannels that are already connected. Additional resources JGroups JChannel 5.9. Encrypting cluster transport Secure cluster transport so that nodes communicate with encrypted messages. You can also configure Data Grid clusters to perform certificate authentication so that only nodes with valid identities can join. 5.9.1. JGroups encryption protocols To secure cluster traffic, you can configure Data Grid nodes to encrypt JGroups message payloads with secret keys. Data Grid nodes can obtain secret keys from either: The coordinator node (asymmetric encryption). A shared keystore (symmetric encryption). Retrieving secret keys from coordinator nodes You configure asymmetric encryption by adding the ASYM_ENCRYPT protocol to a JGroups stack in your Data Grid configuration. This allows Data Grid clusters to generate and distribute secret keys. Important When using asymmetric encryption, you should also provide keystores so that nodes can perform certificate authentication and securely exchange secret keys. This protects your cluster from man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks. Asymmetric encryption secures cluster traffic as follows: The first node in the Data Grid cluster, the coordinator node, generates a secret key. A joining node performs certificate authentication with the coordinator to mutually verify identity. The joining node requests the secret key from the coordinator node. That request includes the public key for the joining node. The coordinator node encrypts the secret key with the public key and returns it to the joining node. The joining node decrypts and installs the secret key. The node joins the cluster, encrypting and decrypting messages with the secret key. Retrieving secret keys from shared keystores You configure symmetric encryption by adding the SYM_ENCRYPT protocol to a JGroups stack in your Data Grid configuration. This allows Data Grid clusters to obtain secret keys from keystores that you provide. Nodes install the secret key from a keystore on the Data Grid classpath at startup. Node join clusters, encrypting and decrypting messages with the secret key. Comparison of asymmetric and symmetric encryption ASYM_ENCRYPT with certificate authentication provides an additional layer of encryption in comparison with SYM_ENCRYPT . You provide keystores that encrypt the requests to coordinator nodes for the secret key. Data Grid automatically generates that secret key and handles cluster traffic, while letting you specify when to generate secret keys. For example, you can configure clusters to generate new secret keys when nodes leave. This ensures that nodes cannot bypass certificate authentication and join with old keys. SYM_ENCRYPT , on the other hand, is faster than ASYM_ENCRYPT because nodes do not need to exchange keys with the cluster coordinator. A potential drawback to SYM_ENCRYPT is that there is no configuration to automatically generate new secret keys when cluster membership changes. Users are responsible for generating and distributing the secret keys that nodes use to encrypt cluster traffic. 5.9.2. Securing cluster transport with asymmetric encryption Configure Data Grid clusters to generate and distribute secret keys that encrypt JGroups messages. Procedure Create a keystore with certificate chains that enables Data Grid to verify node identity. Place the keystore on the classpath for each node in the cluster. For Data Grid Server, you put the keystore in the USDRHDG_HOME directory. Add the SSL_KEY_EXCHANGE and ASYM_ENCRYPT protocols to a JGroups stack in your Data Grid configuration, as in the following example: <infinispan> <jgroups> <!-- Creates a secure JGroups stack named "encrypt-tcp" that extends the default TCP stack. --> <stack name="encrypt-tcp" extends="tcp"> <!-- Adds a keystore that nodes use to perform certificate authentication. --> <!-- Uses the stack.combine and stack.position attributes to insert SSL_KEY_EXCHANGE into the default TCP stack after VERIFY_SUSPECT2. --> <SSL_KEY_EXCHANGE keystore_name="mykeystore.jks" keystore_password="changeit" stack.combine="INSERT_AFTER" stack.position="VERIFY_SUSPECT2"/> <!-- Configures ASYM_ENCRYPT --> <!-- Uses the stack.combine and stack.position attributes to insert ASYM_ENCRYPT into the default TCP stack before pbcast.NAKACK2. --> <!-- The use_external_key_exchange = "true" attribute configures nodes to use the `SSL_KEY_EXCHANGE` protocol for certificate authentication. --> <ASYM_ENCRYPT asym_keylength="2048" asym_algorithm="RSA" change_key_on_coord_leave = "false" change_key_on_leave = "false" use_external_key_exchange = "true" stack.combine="INSERT_BEFORE" stack.position="pbcast.NAKACK2"/> </stack> </jgroups> <cache-container name="default" statistics="true"> <!-- Configures the cluster to use the JGroups stack. --> <transport cluster="USD{infinispan.cluster.name}" stack="encrypt-tcp" node-name="USD{infinispan.node.name:}"/> </cache-container> </infinispan> Verification When you start your Data Grid cluster, the following log message indicates that the cluster is using the secure JGroups stack: Data Grid nodes can join the cluster only if they use ASYM_ENCRYPT and can obtain the secret key from the coordinator node. Otherwise the following message is written to Data Grid logs: Additional resources JGroups 4 Manual JGroups 4.2 Schema 5.9.3.
