Kubernetes Clusters At Scale: Managing Hundreds Apache Pinot Kubernetes Clusters ... by Xiaoman Dong

How to efficiently build and manage hundreds of Kubernetes Clusters that serve modern online analytics databases, for different customers? To add to the challenge, what if customers need to run their own clusters inside their own private clouds? We are sharing our system design that solves it. How to provide fully managed online analytics databases like Pinot to hundreds of customers, while those Pinot clusters are running in each customer’s own private virtual cloud? The answer is by combining the power of Kubernetes with our automated scalable architecture that can fully manage a fleet of Kubernetes clusters. When companies consider using SaaS (Software as a Service) products, they are often held back by challenges like security considerations and storage compliance regulations. Those concerns often require that the data stays within the same virtual cloud owned by the company. And it makes managed solutions very hard for companies to implement. In StarTree we have built a modern data infrastructure based on Kubernetes so companies can keep their data inside their own infrastructure, and at the same time get the benefits of using a fully managed Apache Pinot cluster deployed in the customer’s cloud environment. We have designed a scalable system based on Kubernetes that enables remote creation, maintenance, and monitoring of hundreds of Kubernetes clusters from different companies. This enabled us to scale quickly from a handful of deployments to over 100+ Pinot clusters in a short time span with just 10+ engineers.
