Patent number: 11456914Abstract: A KUBERNETES installation processes a script and invokes a scheduling agent in response to encountering an instruction to create a pod. The scheduling agent is an agent of an orchestrator and performs tasks such as identifying a selected node, creating multiple interface objects with multiple IP addresses, and creating storage volumes in coordination with the orchestrator. Upon creation, the pod may call a CNI that is an agent of the orchestrator in order to configure the pod to use the multiple interface objects. The pod may call a CSI that is an agent of the orchestrator in order to bind a storage volume to the pod. The scheduling agent may coordinate with the orchestrator to implement affinity and anti-affinity rules for placement of pods and storage volumes. The script may also be transformed by the orchestrator in order to insert instructions implementing affinity and anti-affinity rules.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2020Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: ROBIN SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Tushar Doshi, Hariharan Sethuraman, Manjunath Mageswaran, Lakshay Badlani
