Implementation Steps

Setup static IP addresses

You can either reserve a single static IP address and implement routing rules for the UI and backend API pods or assign separate static IP addresses to each of these components.

See the following documentation on how to reserve a static IP address: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/ip-addresses/reserve-static-external-ip-address#reserve_new_static

See the following documentation on how to associate your static IP address(es) with a Kubernetes application: https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/tutorials/configuring-domain-name-static-ip


Update DNS to use the static IP address(es)

See the documentation for your DNS provider on how to update the two Apiboost DNS entries to use the static IP addresses defined above.
