Kubernetes worker

Hello, despite declared Kubernetes support in documentation, I believe that the support for Kubernetes in the opensource version is not complete - it is lacking Kubernetes executor, that is able to spawn workers as Kubernetes jobs. Could this be added? It is partly possible to use even docker in docker, i.e., the docker spawner, in Kubernetes, but it has significant security implications and it is better to avoid and provide real K8s submitter.

Hello,

We only support Kubernetes pod creation for the Arkindex processes in the Enterprise edition (this is documented here & there).

The Community edition (the fully open source one), has only been developed with simple Docker deployments in mind. It can technically run the whole web stack through Kubernetes, but indeed, remote worker execution will be complicated (and not supported by Teklia).

If you need to run Arkindex on a Kubernetes cluster, I suggest reaching out through contact@teklia.com to get a quote for the Enterprise Edition.

Have a nice day,
