    Also, if you are creating bare pods, this sounds like batch scheduling and you should consider using Jobs instead, to have a pod controller. And then you could also consider the https://volcano.sh/ scheduler if it has a fitting scheduling plugin for your use case.

    For our experiments, we will use Volcano which is a batch scheduler for Kubernetes, well-suited for scheduling Spark applications pods with a better efficiency than the default kube-scheduler. The main reason is that Volcano allows "group scheduling" or "gang scheduling": while the default scheduler of Kubernetes schedules containers one by one, Volcano ensures that a gang of related containers (here, the Spark driver and its executors) can be scheduled at the same time. If for any reason it is not possible to deploy all the containers in a gang, Volcano will not schedule that gang. This article explains in more detail the reasons for using Volcano.

charts - ⚠️(OBSOLETE) Curated applications for Kubernetes

kubernetes-operator-roiergasias - 'Roiergasias' kubernetes operator is meant to address a fundamental requirement of any data science / machine learning project running their pipelines on Kubernetes - which is to quickly provision a declarative data pipeline (on demand) for their various project needs using simple kubectl commands. Basically, implementing the concept of No Ops. The fundamental principle is to utilise best of docker, kubernetes and programming language features to run a workflow with minimal workflow definition syntax. It is a Go based workflow running on command line or Kubernetes with the help of a custom operator for a quick and automated data pipeline for your machine learning projects (a flavor of MLOps).
