How do I configure Service Fabric Placement Constraints?

Question

I want to be able to configure placement constraints based on different node types (i.e. FrontEnd, BackEnd). Can I do this per-environment, so that in my test/local cluster there are no constraints, but on my production environments there is?

Answer 1

Yes, you can! The official docs describe a way to do this via code, but you can also do so with the service manifest files directly to get default & per-environment configuration. There is a blog post you can follow (found it in this answer).
