The presentation discusses the use of Kubernetes to manage Mac compute shapes on AWS for iOS builds, with a focus on Flare.build's experience and lessons learned.
- Flare.build is part of Google's Bazel Experts Program and offers value-added services for building and testing applications at scale using Bazel
- Nodeless Kubernetes, developed by Ilota, aims to provide compute that comes up and disappears according to application lifecycle, and can be used to manage Mac compute shapes on AWS
- The presentation discusses the challenges of unifying different compute types for distributed builds, and the benefits of using Kubernetes to manage Mac compute shapes on AWS
- The presenters share their experience evaluating manually-managed vs Kubernetes-managed Mac compute shapes on AWS, and suggest best practices for managing Mac compute shapes on Kubernetes
