This section contains a reference of configuration options for the Vela worker service.
|
The worker is made up of several components, responsible for specific tasks, necessary for the service to operate:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
executor |
coordinates with the runtime to manage workload resources and reports results back to the server |
queue |
integrates with a queue provider for pulling workloads, provided by the server, that will be run |
runtime |
integrates with a runtime environment for executing workload resources |
