  • Provides user secrets to the job container runtime tasks.
  • Adds sidecar container to the Kubernetes job pod if Kerberos authentication is required.
  • Refactors job monitoring using the singleton pattern.
  • Enriches make behaviour for developer-oriented installations with live code reload changes and debugging.
  • Enriches git-status component status reporting for developers.
  • See additional changes in individual REANA 0.6.0 platform components.

0.5.0

• Users:

  • Allows to explore workflow results by running interactive Jupyter notebook
    sessions on the workspace files.
  • Allows to declare computing resources needed for workflow runs, such as
    access to CVMFS repositories.
  • Improves reana-client command-line client with new options to stop
    workflows, diff workflows, move and remove files.

• Administrators:

  • Upgrades to Kubernetes 1.14, Helm 2.13 and Minikube 1.0.
  • Separates cluster infrastructure pods from runtime workflow engine pods
    that will be created by workflow controller.
  • Introduces configurable CVMFS and CephFS shared volume mounts.
  • Adds support for optional HTTPS protocol termination.
  • Introduces incoming workflow queue for additional safety in case of user
    storms.
  • Makes infrastructure pods container image slimmer to reduce the memory
    footprint.
  • See additional changes in reana-cluster release notes.

• Developers:

  • Enhances development process by using git-submodule-like behaviour for
    shared components.

  controller.
• Improves AMQP re-connection handling.
• Enhances test suite and increases code coverage.
• Changes license to MIT.

0.3.0
