InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
That being said the Checkpoint Restore In Userspace project has been around for a number of years and is the closest thing to what you are talking about: taking a linux process on one machine and moving it to another. It is messy but can be done in some cases. There are folks looking at how to integrate CRIU with k8s but it’s all research at this point.
Another option would be something like KubeVirt but that is a different use case where you are actually running a VM in a container for hard-to-containerize workloads.
