spotfire-rservice

Version: 0.1.7 Type: application AppVersion: 1.16.0

A Helm chart for TIBCO Spotfire® Service for R

Homepage: https://github.com/TIBCO/Spotfire-cloud-deployment-kit

Source Code

Requirements

Kubernetes: >=1.24.0-0

Repository Name Version
file://../spotfire-common spotfire-common 0.1.7

Overview

This chart deploys the Spotfire® Service for R service on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

The R service pod includes:

  • A Fluent Bit sidecar container for log forwarding.
  • Service annotations for Prometheus scrapers. The Prometheus server discovers the service endpoint using these specifications and scrapes metrics from the exporter.
  • A predefined configuration for horizontal pod autoscaling with KEDA and Prometheus.

This chart is tested to work with Elasticsearch, Prometheus, and KEDA.

Prerequisites

Usage

Installing

  1. Export the SPOTFIRE_SERVER value to connect to the spotfire-server service: 
    export SPOTFIRE_SERVER=$(kubectl get services --selector=app.kubernetes.io/part-of=spotfire,app.kubernetes.io/name=spotfire-server --output=jsonpath={.items..metadata.name})
  2. Forward the logs to the log-forwarder service: 
    export LOG_FORWARDER=$(kubectl get services --selector=app.kubernetes.io/part-of=spotfire,app.kubernetes.io/name=log-forwarder --output=jsonpath={.items..metadata.name})
  3. Install this chart with the release name my-release and custom values from my-values.yaml: 
    helm install my-release . \
    --set acceptEUA=true \
    --set global.spotfire.image.registry="127.0.0.1:32000" \
    --set global.spotfire.image.pullPolicy="Always" \
    --set nodemanagerConfig.serverBackendAddress="$SPOTFIRE_SERVER" \
    --set logging.logForwarderAddress="$LOG_FORWARDER" \
    -f my-values.yaml

Note: This Spotfire Helm chart requires setting the parameter acceptEUA (or the parameter global.spotfire.acceptEUA) to the value true. By doing so, you agree that your use of the Spotfire software running in the managed containers will be governed by the terms of the Cloud Software Group, Inc. End User Agreement.

Note: You must provide your private registry address where the Spotfire container images are stored.

See helm install for command documentation.

Configuration

To set Custom configuration properties, add the name of the property as a key under the configuration section in your helm.values.

Example:

  # The maximum number of R engine sessions that are allowed to run concurrently in the R service.
  engine.session.max: 5

  # The number of R engines preallocated and available for new sessions in the R service queue.
  engine.queue.size: 10

Uninstalling

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

helm uninstall my-release

See helm uninstall for command documentation.

Scaling

For scaling the my-release deployment, do a helm upgrade, providing the target number of pod instances in the replicaCount variable.

helm upgrade --install my-release . --reuse-values --set replicaCount=3

Autoscaling with KEDA

To use KEDA for autoscaling, first install KEDA in the Kubernetes cluster. You must also install a Prometheus instance that scrapes metrics from the Spotfire pods.

Example: A values.yaml snippet configuration for enabling autoscaling with KEDA:

resources:
  limits:
    cpu: 5
kedaAutoscaling:
  enabled: true
  spotfireConfig:
    prometheusServerAddress: http://prometheus-server.monitor.svc.cluster.local
  threshold: 3
  minReplicas: 1
  maxReplicas: 3

The spotfire-rservice has the following autoscaling defaults:

  • metric: spotfire_service_queue_engines_inUse (serviceQueueEnginesInUse R service counter).
  • query: the sum of spotfire_service_queue_engines_inUse of the R service instances for the release name.

The counter serviceQueueEnginesInUse provides the total number of engines currently executing. By default, the R service has number of cores - 1 available slots, which means that kedaAutoscaling.threshold should be synchronized with resources.limits.cpu. Typically, you want to scale out before all the available capacity is taken. Therefore, the kedaAutoscaling.threshold should be lower than resources.limits.cpu. Note that clients requesting a slot typically wait until a slot is available.

For more information, see Monitoring Spotfire Service for R using JMX.

Note: You can tune nodemanagerConfig.preStopDrainingTimeoutSeconds and other timeouts (for example, engine.execution.timeout and engine.session.maxtime) so that long-running jobs are not aborted prematurely when an instance is stopped to scale in. See Engine Timeout for more details.

For more advanced scenarios, see kedaAutoscaling.advanced and kedaAutoscaling.fallback.

Additionally, you can define your own custom scaling triggers. Helm template functionality is available:

kedaAutoscaling:
  triggers:
  # {list of triggers to activate scaling of the target resource}

Note: For more details on the autoscaling defaults, see the keda-autoscaling.yaml template.

Upgrading

See helm upgrade for command documentation.

Upgrading helm chart version

Note: When you upgrade to a newer Spotfire Server version and newer Spotfire services versions, upgrade the Spotfire Server first, and then upgrade the Spotfire services.
