Build and Deployment instructions

Build Instructions

To build and deploy the SPQR components, please execute the build script provided on project root level:

cd git/spqr
./build.sh /var/opt/git/spqr/ /opt/transport/streaming/spqr/

(attention: all folders must be as absolute paths)

The script asks for the SPQR source folder as well as the selected destination folder. It builds all necessary artifacts and deploys the required nodes into the destination folder.

For more detailed/technical information, please check the build.sh file.

Runtime Modes

The framework supports two different modes: the local/standalone and the cluster mode.

The standalone or local mode allows to operate a processing node without the need to register it with a (remote) resource manager. This mode is intended for running very isolated and non-distributable pipelines. It may also be used for local testing and framework evaluation.

The cluster mode requires a full blown environment and is intended for large and distributed setups.

The best way to start working with SPQR is to set up a single-node environment (mode: local) to tryout things and get a feeling for the technology.
