environment-on-demand

Environment On Demand, using docker containerization. Small self-service web application to setup containers on demand by non-technical users.

Features

Basic

• User authentication
• List of available images
• Select and launch image name
• Stop / Remove container for loggedin user
• Monitor stack for "environment-on-demand"
• Deploy CI / CD strategy

Advanced

• Admin panel for configurations
  • Add / remove container images available
  • Default environment settings for container images
    • Volumes / Network / CPU / RAM
  • System limit for running resources
  • White/Black list for user access to container images
• Admin panel for user management
  • Add/ remove users
• Allow user login via LDAP / KeyCloak

Implementation Approach

Backend - Python (Flask)

• Open specification API
• No authentication (will be covered by gateway later on)
• provision for users
• provision for workspace
• Environment Images
  • CRUD
  • status check on server
• Runs (container launch)
  • CRUD
  • status check on active runs
  • History of old runs

Backend Store - MongoDB

• Collections
  • environment
  • runs

Scheduler

• Using Ofelia
• schedule call to backend
  • check status for existing runs
  • check status for available images
• schedule least-recently-used images by retention policy
  • do we really need this?
  • using Docuum

environment-on-demand's Issues

Assignment Spec for review

Hi Hassan,

Please find a detailed design specification google document on the link and feel free to comment on it if there is anything missing.
Note: This document covers only basic features set for now.

Thanks

Kubernetes 1.0 and user management

Dear Hassan,

I was going through the feature set of the assignment where I have to create a basic UI where a user can interact and create/stop services.
Meanwhile I was going through features set introduced in kubernetes 1.1.0. It already provides us with User accounts management and service accounts management. It pretty much covers most of the requirement mentioned in the assignment.
My question is, if there is already something exist in the community then why we reinvent the wheel? Can I deploy kubernetes and create services on top of it? Or do I must have to do as we discussed?

Please reply to this query. Thanks
