Pick a release from the release page. Find the tag corresponding to the release.

Check out the source code corresponding to that tag. e.g.

git checkout 3.30.1

Build

./gradlew clean build

Additional Changes

Kubernetes resource requests specified here requires minimum n1-standard-8 and kubernetes version of 1.9.3-gke.0.

• add required config files:
  • common/
• add stuffs to enable running on kubernetes to allow scalable workers.
  • added kubernestes yaml files
    • yaml/
  • added scripts to gracefully add/shutdown executor
    • scripts/
  • added dockerfiles for the web server, executor server, and cron jobs for reloading executors list:
    • Dockerfile-sync
    • Dockerfile-exec
    • Dockerfile-web
  • we use cloudsql proxy to connect to cloudsql instance
• added example job generation script using https://github.com/mtth/azkaban
  • jobs.py

Deployments on GKE

Configure your gcloud account and install docker first. Then use gcloud auth configure-docker to configure docker to use gcloud as a credential helper. Also, follow the guide here on creating secrets on kubernetes, we only need the cloudsql-instance-credentials. The service account need to have these role:

• Cloud SQL Client
• Kubernetes Engine Developer Put the azkaban.properties and azkaban-users.xml to the kubernetes secrets:

kubectl create secret generic azkaban-properties --from-file=azkaban.properties=/path/to/azkaban.properties
kubectl create secret generic azkaban-users-xml --from-file=azkaban-users.xml=/path/to/azkaban-users.xml

Things that you need to change:

• Project ID: [project-id] (you can find and replace all)
• Image tag: [image-tag]
• GKE cluster name: azkaban-cluster
• CloudSQL instance: azkaban-db
• Zone for GKE and CloudSQL: asia-southeast1-a
• Azkaban config on conf/

./gradlew clean build installDist

docker build -t gcr.io/[project-id]/azkaban-sync:[image-tag] -f Dockerfile-sync .
docker build -t gcr.io/[project-id]/azkaban-exec:[image-tag] -f Dockerfile-exec .
docker build -t gcr.io/[project-id]/azkaban-web:[image-tag] -f Dockerfile-web .

docker push gcr.io/[project-id]/azkaban-sync:[image-tag]
docker push gcr.io/[project-id]/azkaban-exec:[image-tag]
docker push gcr.io/[project-id]/azkaban-web:[image-tag]

kubectl apply -f yaml/

Experimental: set PDB for more efficient cluster scaling

kubectl apply -n kube-system -f yaml/kube-system/pdb.yaml

Connect to web UI via webproxy

./webproxy.sh

Then go to localhost:8081
