EPIC: Single Node K8S Deployment

[jsync-swirlds]

Goal

Enable the deployment of the Block Node as a single node K8S cluster.

Intention

Identify a suitable single-node Kubernetes option. Design any changes to current build and deployment processes needed to support an option to create a single-node package. Verify that the single-node package deploys correctly as a single-node Kubernetes cluster.

Considerations

• How does this impact support for Solo
  • The two are not directly connected. This is mostly for testing support, and may be used by some production deployments. Solo is focused on other projects and support for Block Node will, if needed, come somewhat later.

Technical Details

We have the helm charts needed, mostly this process requires a few smaller tasks to select a single-node cluster option and ensure we have a build target that can be deployed to that system.
