rancher and reana #142

Open jjkoehorst opened 4 years ago

jjkoehorst commented 4 years ago

I am currently using rancher in combination with a base docker image and running cwltool in there to execute my workflows. The first and last step makes sure that the data is retrieved and transferred for long term storage.

Now executing cwl and to make use of the power of kubernetes to its full extent seems very interesting but I have a question related to glueing different systems together.

The kubernetes cluster currently running is based on rancher and I was wondering if we can use that cluster to execute reana jobs and if so how could I set this up?

We don't use Rancher usually, but it is possible to run REANA on Rancher, see some past musings here: https://github.com/reanahub/reana-cluster/issues/117

Note that we have recently switched REANA master development branch to use Helm for all deployments, so we should probably revive the Rancher deployment musings from that issue and test our latest Helm charts; it should be easier. Something we could get to in the next few weeks.
