Kubernetes Integration

Utility Network’s Volcano Engine integrates with common Kubernetes to jointly build a verifiable en- vironment and service infrastructure on the miner side. The Volcano Engine, a highly optimized com- puting engine, works seamlessly with Kubernetes to enable powerful computational capabilities and high scalability.

By integrating API Gateway, Scheduler, Ten- sor Processing Unit (TPU), and fast cache vir- tualization technologies, Utility builds isolated sandbox environments on the Kubernetes platform. These isolated sandboxes are implemented through container technology and standard images, en- abling Utility to support mega-scale parallel com- puting tasks such as training and inference deployment of Transformer models.

In the Utility network, Kubernetes handles container-based application deployment, scaling, and management. This enables the Utility network to leverage the benefits of the Kubernetes ecosys- tem [29], including flexible resource management, high scalability, and support for a variety of hard- ware and software platforms. The Kubernetes inte- gration also provides a range of advanced tools and services, including Autoscaling, service Discov- ery, and Fault Recovery to ensure high availability and performance in distributed computing scenar- ios. Utility also integrates virtualization technology with Kubernetes to automate the scheduling and management of computing tasks, while Kubernetes dynamically allocates and adjusts the memory re- sources of TPU chips based on task demand and resource status to ensure efficient and stable opera- tion of computing tasks in the Utility network.

As one can see, the integration of Utility network and Kubernetes provides a powerful foun- dation for building distributed computing environ- ments. Through this integration, Utility can provide highly scalable, high-performance, secure and re- liable computing resources for various computing tasks to meet the needs of future artificial intelli- gence and big data applications.
