Updated over 2 years ago. 3 hacker ♥️. 2 followers.

Kubernetes API caching layer according to Stable Diffusion

Make it faster!

There are use cases that put the Kubernetes API under heavy load - using Rancher at scale can be one of them.

Also, there are use cases in which a connection to the Kubernetes API might not always be present, or with good bandwidth - using Rancher for edge use cases can be one of them.

This project aims to create a local cache serving data from the Kubernetes API - with good performance and displaying last-good-results on a flaky connection.

Goal for this Hackweek

Implement Proof-Of-Concept client-go components backed by SQLite.

      Day 1 question: is a separate daemon design better than creating an Informer backed by a SQL cache.Store?

      Day 1 answer: no. Pivoting project to the creation of a SQL-based Indexer
