[xwiki-devs] Helm Chart Xwiki - GSOC'19

Hi everyone, Thanks for having me here About Me I am Ashish Sharma, selected as a student for Google Summer of Code. I am final year student enrolled in Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, Delhi. I am a resident of India. Profiles GitHub - https://github.com/ashish932/xwiki-helm-chart/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashish932/ Riot - @ashish932:matrix.org I will be presenting my project "Helm Chart for XWiki" to all of you. Following are the relevant details. Helm Chart for XWiki Mentors: Shubham Jain, Neha Gupta Technologies: Kubernetes, Docker, other if required Overview The proposed project is a helm chart that would deploy xwiki as highly available and reliable. It should be configurable with different databases(either a standalone database or a clustered one) that are configurable with xwiki. It would give the option to either configure solr externally (standalone or clustered) or managed within the container. It should deploy the app on a shared file system like a rook. It should support Istio virtual services, istio matrix, and istio distributed tracing and should be a secured system with RBAC and security credential rotation. The chart should be easily deployed on GKE and amazon EKS. Features -> Support for different Databases -> Choice between using an external database, a single node DB or a multi-cluster DB setup -> Support for shared file system -> Support for istio and it's services -> RBAC, SSL and other security methods If you have any features in mind that should be added please feel free to reply to this mail. Some Design Questions? -> Which Databases should be supported? -> As we have to detach solr out of the docker container(run it in an independent container) would be there a requirement for a code change, and we should approach it? -> Apart from solr is there any other stateful service that could or should be detached from the docker container? Here is my current repository which deploys XWiki for MySQL database using official XWiki docker container:- https://github.com/ashish932/xwiki-helm-chart/ Thank You Ashish Sharma
