Cluster infrastructure with on-demand activation
A request is received over a network. The request is directed to a service provided by an application of a cluster infrastructure. The cluster infrastructure includes the application and a control plane to schedule execution of the application. Responsive to receiving the request, the control plane of the cluster infrastructure is transitioned from a stopped state to an active state. The request is transferred to the cluster infrastructure.
1. A method comprising:
receiving a request over a network, the request directed to a service provided by an application of a cluster infrastructure, the cluster infrastructure comprising the application and a control plane to schedule execution of the application;
responsive to receiving the request, transitioning, by a processing device, the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from a stopped state to an active state; and
transferring the request to the cluster infrastructure.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cluster infrastructure comprises a container image, a virtual machine (VM), or both a container image and a VM.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the cluster infrastructure comprises the container image, and
wherein the container image comprises the control plane of the cluster infrastructure.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein transitioning the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from a stopped state to an active state comprises restoring the cluster infrastructure from a data snapshot.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
responsive to determining that a time duration since any request has been received that is directed to the service provided by the application has exceeded a defined duration, creating a data snapshot of the cluster infrastructure; and
transitioning the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from the active state to the stopped state.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cluster infrastructure provides an access point for accessing the service of the application,
wherein receiving the request over the network comprises receiving the request at a proxy access point, and
wherein transferring the request to the cluster infrastructure comprises transferring the request between the proxy access point and the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
detecting a creation of the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure; and
responsive to detecting the creation of the access point, creating the proxy access point that is associated with the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure.
8. A system comprising:
a memory; and
a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory, to:
receive a request over a network, the request directed to a service provided by an application of a cluster infrastructure, the cluster infrastructure comprising the application and a control plane to schedule execution of the application;
responsive to receiving the request, transition the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from a stopped state to an active state; and
transfer the request to the cluster infrastructure.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the cluster infrastructure comprises a container image, a virtual machine (VM), or both a container image and a VM.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the cluster infrastructure comprises the container image, and
wherein the container image comprises the control plane of the cluster infrastructure.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein, to transition the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from a stopped state to an active state, the processing device is to restore the cluster infrastructure from a data snapshot.
12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the processing device is further to:
responsive to determining that a time duration since any request has been received that is directed to the service provided by the application has exceeded a defined duration, create a data snapshot of the cluster infrastructure; and
transition the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from the active state to the stopped state.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the cluster infrastructure provides an access point for accessing the service of the application,
wherein, to receive the request over the network, the processing device is to receive the request at a proxy access point, and
wherein, to transfer the request to the cluster infrastructure, the processing device is to transfer the request between the proxy access point and the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the processing device is further to:
detect a creation of the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure; and
responsive to detecting the creation of the access point, create the proxy access point that is associated with the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure.
15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to:
receive a request over a network, the request directed to a service provided by an application of a cluster infrastructure, the cluster infrastructure comprising the application and a control plane to schedule execution of the application;
responsive to receiving the request, transition, by the processing device, the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from a stopped state to an active state; and
transfer the request to the cluster infrastructure.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the cluster infrastructure comprises a container image, and
wherein the container image comprises the control plane of the cluster infrastructure.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein, to transition the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from a stopped state to an active state, the processing device is to restore the cluster infrastructure from a data snapshot.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the processing device is further to:
responsive to determining that a time duration since any request has been received that is directed to the service provided by the application has exceeded a defined duration, create a data snapshot of the cluster infrastructure; and
transition the control plane of the cluster infrastructure from the active state to the stopped state.
19. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the cluster infrastructure provides an access point for accessing the service of the application,
wherein, to receive the request over the network, the processing device is to receive the request at a proxy access point, and
wherein, to transfer the request to the cluster infrastructure, the processing device is to transfer the request between the proxy access point and the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure.
20. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 19 , wherein the processing device is further to:
detect a creation of the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure; and
responsive to detecting the creation of the access point, create the proxy access point that is associated with the access point provided by the cluster infrastructure.
