Deployment ​

Standalone ​

Jifa will run in standalone mode if role is STANDALONE_WORKER.

Suitable scenarios:

• Analyze local files.
• Deploy in a high-spec server.

In this mode, H2 will be used as the database by default.

Steps ​

1. After build, transfer jifa.zip (or jifa.tar) to your target environment.
2. unzip jifa.zip or tar -xf jifa.tar
3. ./jifa/bin/jifa

Cluster ​

In cluster mode, users need to prepare a MySQL database.

There are two types of roles:

• MASTER: is responsible for receiving analysis requests and forwarding to worker nodes.
• STATIC_WORKER: is responsible for processing analysis requests.
• ELASTIC_WORKER: is responsible for processing analysis requests.

Deploy a Cluster ​

Refer to cluster.yml.

Command: kubectl apply -f cluster.yml

If your cluster does not have a default Storage Class, you need to modify cluster.yml to set it.

Deploy a Static Cluster (only contains master nodes and static worker nodes) ​

The first two steps are the same as standalone mode.

• Launch MASTER nodes

  shell

  # set database
  $ export MYSQL_HOST=<host>
  $ export MYSQL_DATABASE=<name>
  $ export MYSQL_USER=<username>
  $ export MYSQL_PASSWORD=<password>
  
  $ ./jifa/bin/jifa --jifa.role=master

  # set database
  $ export MYSQL_HOST=<host>
  $ export MYSQL_DATABASE=<name>
  $ export MYSQL_USER=<username>
  $ export MYSQL_PASSWORD=<password>
  
  $ ./jifa/bin/jifa --jifa.role=master

• Launch STATIC_WORKER nodes

  shell

  # set database
  $ export MYSQL_HOST=<host>
  $ export MYSQL_DATABASE=<name>
  $ export MYSQL_USER=<username>
  $ export MYSQL_PASSWORD=<password>
  
  $ ./jifa/bin/jifa --jifa.role=static_worker

  # set database
  $ export MYSQL_HOST=<host>
  $ export MYSQL_DATABASE=<name>
  $ export MYSQL_USER=<username>
  $ export MYSQL_PASSWORD=<password>
  
  $ ./jifa/bin/jifa --jifa.role=static_worker
