Hi!

I am thinking about running JPPF in a Kubernetes cluster. I know, Kubernetes is more for running small, lightweight apps/containers. As JPPF (or the jobs/tasks that run in JPPF) are more CPU heavy load apps, you have to force Kubernetes to run one JPPF node on one Kubernetes node and not to change this.

The advantage would be that you can get up a Kubernetes cluster running easily at a local installation but also at almost every cloud provider our of the box.

Has anybody tried this yet?

Hello,

We are currently working on providing Docker images for JPPF components, along with tools and configuration files to run JPPF grids on Docker swarm and Kubernetes infrastructures. Please see JPPF-589 Docker images for JPPF components which we intend to deliver in the first allpha release of the upcoming JPPF 6.2.

We are definitely interested by any input or requirements that you think should be part of it.

Sincerely,
-Laurent

If there is a any (e.g. alpha) version to test, I will try it out!
