Overview:

This guide explains how to deploy the tracebloc application to your Kubernetes cluster using a Helm Chart. The app includes the tracebloc runtime, which runs experiments and sends results to the tracebloc backend.

Prerequisites:

• You need kubectl installed and connected to your Kubernetes cluster.

• Helm 3.x must be installed on your machine.

Network Requirements:

• Communication with the tracebloc backend is one-way (client requests data only).

• Port 443 must be open to send experiment data through Azure Service Bus (AmqpOverWebsocket).

• The client only communicates with the tracebloc backend, sharing experiment metrics and weight files.

Cluster Requirements:

• We recommend that each node in the cluster has at least 50 GB of RAM and 20 CPU cores.

Data Storage:

• Training data, models, and weight files will be stored on persistent volumes.

Required Configuration:

• Docker credentials (username, password)

• Client credentials (client ID, username, password)

• Service Bus connection string

• Azure Storage connection string

For these configurations, email us at info@tracebloc.io.

Deployment Options:

• AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service)

• EKS (Coming soon)

• Bare Metal (Coming soon)
