ConfigSync keeps your Fusion configuration settings consistent and up-to-date across different environments by automatically synchronizing configuration data between your Git repository and your Fusion cluster. It follows GitOps principles by using Git as the single source of truth for configuration management.
TLS must be disabled in order to use ConfigSync.

​
Features

ConfigSync supports these features:
  • Configuration storage
    • Git Repository: Stores the configuration files.
    • Fusion Cluster: Applies the configuration files to the Fusion cluster.
    • Kubernetes Secret: Stores the Fusion secrets.
  • Synchronization mechanisms
    • Polling:
      • Periodically pulls the latest changes from the Git repository and applies them to the Fusion cluster.
      • Periodically pulls the latest changes from some solr collections (blobs, rules) and pushes them to the Git repository.
    • Event-driven:
      • Listens for changes in the Fusion cluster and pushes them to the Git repository.
      • Listens for changes in the Kubernetes secret and syncs them with the Fusion cluster.
  • Synchronization modes
    • Publisher mode: Monitors Fusion for changes and pushes them to a Git repository.
    • Subscriber mode: Polls a Git repository for changes and applies them to Fusion.
    • Pub/Sub mode: Combines the features of both Publisher and Subscriber modes.
  • Secret management
    • Supports storing Fusion secrets in a Kubernetes secret and syncing them with the Git repository.
    • Watches for changes in the Kubernetes secret and syncs them with the Fusion cluster.
  • Version control
    • Maintains the latest-synced-commit to track the last applied commit.
    • Supports locking the configuration to a specific commit using locked-commit.
  • Restoring configuration
    • Allows rollback to a previous state.
    • Supports restoring the configurations to a specific commit, branch or date.
  • Metrics
    • Exposes metrics such as resource_update_errors_total, out_of_sync, sync_seconds, and sync_seconds_max at the /actuator/prometheus endpoint.
