Previously loadbalancer pools were named as a combination of the service port protocol and outward bound port: - `service.spec.ports[].protocol` - `service.spec.ports[].port` Since a name mis-match causes a pool to be recreated - an operation that takes around 30-45 seconds - a change in the port number caused the pool and its members to be recreated. Since Kubernetes has the option to set a unique name for each service port, we can offer an approach that allows to change the port, without pool recreation in some cases: - If a service has only one port with no name and the port changes. - If a service uses names but keeps the names stable when changing ports. In such cases, only the listener has to be re-created, which can be done in 10-15 seconds. There's still a slight downtime that has to be expected, but it is much shorter. When the name changes, the pool still has to be recreated, which will be a bit unexpected, but for deployments that would like to add/remove/change a port with minimal downtime, there's now a way.
