A cartridge is a container for a framework, load balancer or data management system. You can add a cartridge in a platform as a service (PaaS) for scalability. A sample cartridge definition, together with information on all the properties that can be added in a cartridge definition JSON are as follows:

Sample cartridge definition JSON

The following are sample configurations that can be used in a JSON to define a cartridge:

Property definitions

All the properties that correspond to the cartridge parameter resource are explained as follows:

The following can be assigned for the Kubernetes port type:

  • NodePort -  If this value is used, it will create a service which can be accessed from the outside with port range of 30,000 to 32,767.
  • ClusterIP - If this value is used, the service that gets created will not be exposed to the outside. This is useful if you don't want to expose a service to outside, but need to maintain internal communication within Docker containers.

Access URLs are generated only for the NodePort service type.

property

The IaaS provider properties will override the cartridge level properties that are defined in the <PRIVATE_PAAS_HOME>/repository/conf/cloud-controller.xml.

These abbreviations are used in the following table to specify the names of the IaaS:

  • E = EC2
  • O = OpenStack
  • Kub = Kubernetes
Property NameRelevant IaaS   DescriptionDefault ValueExample Values
EOK
associatePublicIpAddressXXWhen using virtual private cloud (VPC) this property needs to be assigned to true, so that your cartridge instance will be assigned a public IP.truetrue, false
autoAssignIpXThis is used to determine whether your cartridge will be assigned a public IP or private IP. If this property, is true a public IP will be assigned to your cartridge. If this property is false the IP will be assigned manually.truetrue, false
availabilityZoneX

The name of the availability zone.

If you are using more than one partition, define the availability zone only in the cartridge definition and make sure not to define the availability zone in the cloud-controller.xml. This will enable the Autoscaler to dynamically select availability zone based on the partition.

N/Aap-southeast-1a
blockUntilRunningXX

This will determine whether or not the instance spawning call to the IaaS will be blocked, in order to retrieve IP addresses. If you wish to auto assign IPs, the instance spawning call should be blocking, but if you wish to assign IPs manually, it can be non-blocking.

falsetrue, false
defaultFloatingIpPoolX XIf the floating IPs have not been pre-allocated for the respective tenant, when launching a cartridge, the floating IP allocation will fail. This property is used to specify the name of the floating IP pool that needs to be used.N/APublicPool1

instanceType

X

The type of instance that determines the instance size, which needs to be used. In OpenStack this is referred to as flavor.

The instance type value needs to be specified differently based on the IaaS.

Number of CPU cores used in a pod. With the value following suffices (E, P, T, G, M, K, m) or their power-of-two equivalents (Ei, Pi, Ti, Gi, Mi, Ki) can be used. If value is defined as zero, it will allow to use indefinite resources in the Kubernetes node. For more information, go to Kubernetes resource model.

The port offset defines the number by which all ports defined in the runtime such as the HTTP/S ports will be offset. For example, if the HTTP port is defined as 9763 and the portOffset is 1, the effective HTTP port will be 9764. Therefore, for each additional WSO2 product, instance, or cluster you add to a server, set the port offset to a unique value (the default is 0).1
