Hi Druid, I’d like to contribute a new Community Extension named druid-kubernetes-middlemanager-extensions. Proposal Link: https://github.com/apache/druid/issues/10824 and PR link : https://github.com/apache/druid/pull/10910
When enable this feature, Druid can launch Peon as a pod to do data ingestion. The advantages are as follows: Cost saving: there is no need to let MiddleManager take up a lot of resources in advance, and just require resources whenever it will use. Now we can use a single 2Cores and 2Gi Memory middelmanager pod to control Dozens or even hundreds peon pods. Improve resource utilization: Now different kinds of tasks can use different configs including CPU resources and Memory resources if necessary. If you are interested in this feature, please let me know. Looking forward to your reply. Best wishes, Yue Zhang
