Deployment

Standalone

Jifa will run in standalone mode if role is STANDALONE_WORKER.

Suitable scenarios:

• Analyze local files.
• Deploy in a high-spec server.

In this mode, H2 will be used as the database by default.

Steps

1. After build, transfer jifa.zip (or jifa.tar) to your target environment.
2. unzip jifa.zip or tar -xf jifa.tar
3. ./jifa/bin/jifa

Cluster

In cluster mode, users need to prepare a MySQL database.

There are two types of roles:

• MASTER: is responsible for receiving analysis requests and forwarding to worker nodes.
• STATIC_WORKER: is responsible for processing analysis requests.
• ELASTIC_WORKER: is responsible for processing analysis requests.

Deploy a Cluster

Refer to cluster.yml.

Command: kubectl apply -f cluster.yml

If your cluster does not have a default Storage Class, you need to modify cluster.yml to set it.

Deploy a Static Cluster (only contains master nodes and static worker nodes)

The first two steps are the same as standalone mode.

• Launch MASTER nodes

  # set database
  $ export MYSQL_HOST=<host>
  $ export MYSQL_DATABASE=<name>
  $ export MYSQL_USER=<username>
  $ export MYSQL_PASSWORD=<password>
  
  $ ./jifa/bin/jifa --jifa.role=master

• Launch STATIC_WORKER nodes

  # set database
  $ export MYSQL_HOST=<host>
  $ export MYSQL_DATABASE=<name>
  $ export MYSQL_USER=<username>
  $ export MYSQL_PASSWORD=<password>
  
  $ ./jifa/bin/jifa --jifa.role=static_worker
