@Nicholas LoFaso - comment from @Fabio Grätz -- LB with gRPC https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/ingress-http2 [1:31 AM] I have read somewhere that adding this annotation to a service might make it work:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  annotations:
    <http://cloud.google.com/app-protocols|cloud.google.com/app-protocols>: '{"my-port":"HTTP2"}'

Haven’t tried though, we use Istio with its ingress gateways instead of the GCP Ingress. No problem with gRPC this way.

Ketan - thanks for bringing this to our attention. Not sure if we’ve tried this yet. Will take a look and report back. cc: @Justin Tyberg

cool

we did try HTTP/2, but i read somewhere that it uses HTTPS to communicate back to the service

ya http/2 needs ssl

maybe we didn’t

Has anyone tried this already?

There was an email Chain with gcp
