During this buzzword heavy BoF, we hope to gather deployers interested in a broad range of topics from big picture choices (such as DevOps, Containers, and Clouds) to specific technologies (for instance Ansible, Condor, and Kubernetes) and specific Galaxy communities (including docker-galaxy-stable, CloudMan, and GalaxyKickStart). This last year has seen significant sharing and splintering of resources for containerized deployments - we hope this BoF can serve as a venue to coordinate plans for the next year to maximize reuse we can accomplish going forward.
Possible Topics Include:
- Discuss plans for major Galaxy virtualization projects for the next year - including at least docker-galaxy-stable but hopefully more such CloudMan and GalaxyKickStart.
- Discuss different options for deploying Galaxy to Kubernetes/Swarm/OpenShift and potentially coordinate reuse across methods.
- Discuss multi-container deployment options being developed as part of the docker-galaxy-stable project including planned development and testing of complete deployment recipes for Kubernetes, Swarm, and OpenShift.
- Discuss plans for major Galaxy-related Ansible efforts this year and develop plans to reduce duplication across projects.
- Discuss our efforts to automate testing of Galaxy deployment artifacts over the last year and how they can be leveraged. Discuss plans for future testing.
