#InterSystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO)

0

The InterSystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO) automates the deployment of InterSystems IRIS® topologies on any Kubernetes platform. It extends the Kubernetes API with the IrisCluster custom resource, which can be deployed as an InterSystems IRIS sharded cluster, distributed cache cluster, or standalone instance (all optionally mirrored) on any Kubernetes platform. The IKO also adds InterSystems IRIS-specific cluster management capabilities to Kubernetes, enabling automation of tasks like adding nodes to a cluster, which you would otherwise have to do manually by interacting directly with the instances.

New Video: Kubernetes Overview

If you're looking for an introduction to Kubernetes as a technology, and a little teaser about the InterSystems Kubernetes Operator, check out the recently released Kubernetes Overview video. This video will introduce you to the functionality and use cases of Kubernetes, and explain a bit about how the InterSystems Kubernetes Operator makes it beneficial to use Kubernetes with InterSystems IRIS.

In the context of IKO (Iris Kubernetes Operator) the question of Service not redirecting dynamically to the correct Pod is still pending.
In production this can be dangerous since an overload (or any other simpler problem) can cause you to change the main Pod and leave the application inoperable until we intervene.

Intersystems support warned that this is still an issue of IKO, but there are some possibilities that I am studying.

To explore an idea I had, I would like the help of this Forum to answer the following question:

Hi Everyone,

I've been working on deploying an IRIS for Health environment in EKS. There is a video session in the InterSystems learning portal about this feature but I have not succeeded in finding the proper documentation and resources to use this in my Kubernetes cluster.

Has this been deprecated/discontinued? Any idea where can I find the resources? Should I stick to StatefulSets instead of using the IrisCluster resource type provided by this operator?
