Deployment packaging about substra-documentation HOT 3 CLOSED

Reminder: Substra framework is a complex and distributed application. Moreover, it uses new technologies such as K8S. It is not possible to have a one-click installation like traditional software. Its installation will always have some complexity.

However, actions are underway from a technical point of view to make local deployment simpler, as well as documentation updates to take into account the different troubles encountered.

Update from last MAP committee (10/09/2020):

• [Nathanaël, Chris] We succeeded today in a local setup with a very clear documentation. A setup on a node with two organizations on a virtual machine has also been done and can be made available upon request.
• [Mathieu] It would be super interesting to have a few examples easily executables on a publicly accessible instance (e.g. OVH). Budget might be a topic though
• [Eric] Budget could be covered by OVH sponsorship
• [Chris] In such a setup couldn’t there be a problem of resource accumulation?.
• [Camille] It can be handled with some simple hacks to launch several learning tasks on Titanic for exemple (adding a random part on the algo script, etc.)
• → The next step is to install a test instance on OVH in order to allow a Data Scientist to play with Substra without having to perform a deploy
• [Amine] Possibility to package the VM on OVH or AWS marketplaces?
• Nathanaël and Eric will look into that
