Welcome to Two Sigma's Waiter project!
Waiter is a web service platform that runs, manages, and automatically scales services without requiring human intervention.
Waiter Design is a good place to start to learn more.
In this repository, you'll find two subprojects, each with its own documentation.
waiter
- This is the actual web service platform, Waiter. It comes with a JSON REST API.kitchen
- This is the kitchen application, a test app used by the Waiter integration tests.
Please visit the waiter
subproject first to get started.
The quickest way to get Mesos, Marathon, and Waiter running locally is with docker and minimesos.
- Install
docker
- Install
minimesos
- Clone down this repo
- Run
containers/bin/build-docker-images.sh
to build the minimesos agent image with kitchen and other test apps baked in cd waiter
- Run
minimesos up
to start Mesos, ZooKeeper, and Marathon - Run
bin/run-using-minimesos.sh
to start Waiter - Waiter should now be listening locally on port 9091
Waiter can also be run without Mesos and Marathon, using the "shell scheduler". Note that this scheduler should only be used for testing purposes, not in production.
- Ensure
setsid
is installed on your system and on your path - Clone down this repo
cd waiter
- Run
bin/run-using-shell-scheduler.sh
to start Waiter - Waiter should now be listening locally on port 9091
