Redis Cluster connecting to nodes via DNS instead of IP would vastly simplify deployment on K8s.


How do you solve this problem? Can you use headless K8S services for that?


You can use a StatefulSet which gives a fixed hostname per pod. Then you can have a sidecar pod that monitors the cluster, discovers the IPs of all pods, and uses redis_trib to create and maintain the cluster. It's a hassle to make it robust though.


Don't see why you would do that, instead of a headless service.
