<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Hi all,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">There was an idea of using Kubernetes to handle long running processes for Ironic [0]. It could be useful for example for graphical and serial consoles or improving scalability (and possibly for other long-running
processes in the future). Kubernetes would be used as a backend for running processes (as containers).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">However, the complexity of adding this to ironic would be a too laborious, considering the use case. At the PTG it was decided not to implement it within ironic, but in the future ironic may adopt such solution
if it’s common.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I’m reaching out to you to ask if you’re aware of any other use cases that could leverage such solution. If there’s a need for it in other project, it may be a good idea to implement this in some sort of a
common place.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Kind regards, </span></p>
