Madcore is a CLI tool for deployment and auto-configuration of data mining and analytics microservices. It is a Kubernetes-based unmodified KOPS/Minikube installation manager. However, single point of truth is preserved as a unified yaml file called "clusterfile". Clusterfile controls generic aspects of provisioning, deployment, scale and configuration. All KOPS and Kubernetes templates are then populated from input clusterfile.
Mac & Linux install form terminal.
pip install madcore
If you want to contribute to MadcoreCLI, add new k8s modules or create your own clusterfiles you should clone the repo, create python virtual environment (make sure package is installed) to isolate installations from the rest of the system, activate the virtual env, perform requirements install, and create a symlink so you can call MadcoreCLI from any folder on the system. For below example we assume both cloned repo and new virtual environment will end up in ~/git folder in your user space and full path is /Users/peter/git Obviously you can adjust this to match your system.
mkdir ~/git && cd ~/git
virtualenv venv_cli && source venv_cli/bin/activate
git clone [email protected]:madcore-ai/cli.git
pip install -r ~git/cli/requirements.txt
ln -s /Users/peter/git/cli/bin/madcore.sh /usr/local/bin/madcore
- Virtual Box
- Minikube 1.9
- Local PC 16GB of Ram (minikube is set at 8GB by default)
- VPC in AWS (you will need id)
- Internet Gateway attached to VPC
- S3 Storage bucket for KOPS settings
Minikube is great but obviously limited by specs of your local machine. You can comment out elements of minikube.yaml to suit your needs. Then when you're ready start provisioning. When you're done, run second command to map minikube.local hostname to your new setup.
madcore --provision minikube.yaml
madcore --mini-hostname
Currently Madcore is tested on Mac and Linux only. We are working on exposing clusterfiles and templates in a better way. By default they install with the python project files location similar to this lib/python2.7/site-packages/madcore
madcore --provision demo.yaml
AWS POST-INSTALL:
- Create <yourdomain.com> A record and point it to ingress IP (ingress horizontal scaling above 500MB/s is described in another doc)
- Create wildcard CNAME *.<yourdomain.com> and point it to your above hostname (will automate this eventually)
- Create Security Group in your VPC and whitelist your access IP's, attach it to ingress node (will automate this eventually)
Functionality is grouped into instance groups (physically) and into namespaces (logically). Each software deployed here belongs to their respective owners. We do not interfere in containers but make sure that we find best containers for deployment in Kubernetes.
Goal of Madcore is to abstract deployment and configuration of data processing elements and have it available in working state out-of-the-box. This way anyone can start work on their actual problem and not spend time on deployment and configuration of common toolsets.

Installation of core elements is a single command. Filenames in range of 100-200. You can comment out any of those installs. By commenting corresponding lines in your aws clusterfile. Registry and metrics elements are optional. You probably want to leave dashboard and ingress setup as everything else maps to it.
madcore --install-core

Neo4j and Dashboard is in the template file space of 9220-9229. Deploy using command below. Few second later you will have a working dashboard and single pod engine configuration ready to start your tests. Thi deployment is installed onto standard nodes instancegroup. This deployment lives its own neo4j namespace. It's easy to remove it when you don't require it anymore. It using standard neo4j:3.1.4-enterprise containers from docker hub maintainer by neo4j team. It is exposed through ingress and mapped through its own subodmain neo4j.<yourdomain.com>

Famous trio optimized for Kubernetes. Elasticsearch exposed through ingress as well as Kibana. Internally FluentD DaemonSets are deployed to ALL nodes and collect all logs from pods stdout along with kubernetes logs and aggregate in ElasticSearch. Deploy this when you have a need. There is a dedicated instance group for ELK so it doesn't collide with any of your other applications.
