Requirements

Necessary basic knowledge

  • Git

  • Ansible / Ansible Vault

  • Docker / Docker-Compose / Container

Operating system

Deployment is supported on Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04. Other distributions are currently not supported.

Deployment

If the deployment is carried out or supervised by us, direct SSH access to the system acting as manager is required.

Optimally, a VPN is provided via which all relevant nodes including the remote consoles can be accessed.

Services & Access

The nodes need access to some external services.

All nodes

  • DNS and NTP servers

  • Docker Hub / Quay.io

  • Official Ubuntu mirrors

Note

  • Mirrors for Docker and Ubuntu can be provided within the environment. Then access to Docker Hub / Quay.io and Ubuntu mirrors is only required from the manager.

  • If no direct access to external services is possible, the use of an HTTP proxy is possible.

Manager node

  • GitHub or an internal Git repository server (e.g. Gitlab)

  • PyPI
