<p>I am trying to deploy an Apache Ignite cluster in Kubernetes. The documentation suggests using TcpDiscoveryKubernetesIpFinder to facilitate the Ignite node discovery in a Kubernetes environment. However, I could not find this class in Apache Ignite for .Net. Is it migrated to .Net at all? If not, how can I use in my Net application? I am not very much familiar with Java.</p>

<p>If it is not possible, is there an alternative approach to implement node discovery in the Kubernetes environment without using TcpDiscoveryKubernetesIpFinder? Multicast is not available in Azure Virtual Network. </p>

<p>The range of available IPs in my Kubernetes subnet is 1000+ addresses so using TcpDiscoveryStaticIpFinder would not be very efficient. I tried to reduce FailureDetectionTimeout to 1 sec on my local PC to make it more efficient but Ignite generates a bunch of the "critical thread blocked" exception, allegedly each time when an endpoint is found unavailable. So I had to get rid of FailureDetectionTimeout.</p>

<p>I am using Azure Kubernetes Service and Apache Ignite 2.7 for Net. Thank you in advance. </p>

<p>You can combine Java-based (Spring XML) configuration with .NET configuration.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Configure <code>TcpDiscoveryKubernetesIpFinder</code> in Spring XML file (see <a href="https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/kubernetes-ip-finder" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/kubernetes-ip-finder</a>)</p></li>
<li><p>In .NET, set <code>IgniteConfiguration.SpringConfigUrl</code> to point to that file</p></li>
</ol>

<p>The way it works is Ignite loads Spring XML first, then applies any custom config properties that are specified on .NET side.</p>
