Hi Jay,
'service'/'pod'/'rc' are conceptual abstraction at magnum level. Yes,
the abstraction was inspired from the same in kubernetes, but the data
stored in DB about a 'service' is properly abstracted and not
k8s-specific at the top level.
If we plan to change this to 'k8s-service-list', the same applies for
even creation and other actions. This will give rise to COE-specific
command and concepts and which may proliferate further. Instead, we can
abstract swarm's service concept under the umbrella of magnum's
'service' concept without creating k8s-service and swarm-service.
I suggest we should keep the concept/abstraction at Magnum level, as it is.
Regards,
SURO
