Rancher Labs Adds Support for Mesos
“The combination of the Apache Mesos scheduler and Rancher container management platform is a big win for users,” said Josh Bernstein, Vice President Technology, Emerging Technology Division, EMC Corporation. “With the integration of these two open source projects, organizations will be able to spin up Mesos clusters in minutes on any infrastructure, and easily schedule and deploy workloads.”
With this latest update, Rancher now:
- Automates the setup and upgrade of Mesos infrastructure including Zookeeper cluster, Mesos masters, Mesos slaves and Mesos Marathon. Mesos slaves will automatically be added when new hosts are added. When new versions of Rancher are deployed, existing Mesos clusters will be upgraded without impacting the running workload.
- Automates the setup and upgrade of Mesos frameworks, an important benefit of running Mesos on Rancher. Many popular distributed applications are available as Mesos frameworks. Users can deploy Mesos frameworks such as Cronos, Aurora, Hadoop, Elasticsearch and Kafka from the Rancher catalog with a click of a button. Additionally, they can perform a fully automated upgrade of these frameworks as new versions become available.
- Provides a powerful set of infrastructure and management services for Mesos. Rancher networking, storage and load balancing services work with applications running on Mesos. Rancher manages multiple Mesos cluster environments for multiple users and provides Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for large organizations.
“Modern DevOps practices encourage the use of a diverse set of tools and frameworks based on team expertise and project needs,” said Sheng Liang, co-founder and CEO of Rancher Labs. “By adding support for Mesos, Rancher enables IT organizations to provide choice of orchestration and scheduling frameworks when they deploy and manage containers in production.”
