    Description

    Autonomous Capability Team 3 (ACT3) at the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) produces an artificial intelligence research platform called the Air and Space Force Cognitive Engine (ASCE). ASCE is distributed as a Kubernetes system with all of its necessary components included. The system’s deployment is a complicated process, and is currently done using the Helm and Helmfile tools. The design decisions made by Helm and Helmfile have raised concerns, so there is interest in finding a better approach.This project explores the complexity problems of large-scale Kubernetes systems. Existing approaches were researched, analyzed, and evaluated. The research concluded with a comprehensive comparison of various approaches, the identification of a few guiding principles, and a prescribed solution prioritizing those principles.
