allow user to save snapshot of pachyderm

What is the feature/concept/idea?

A huge benefit of kaos is the ability to deploy and kill clusters on demand. This is a cost effective method to counter all MLaaS offerings (i.e. cheap SageMaker).

An additional feature is required to make this possible - the ability to store and restore kaos “snapshots”.

This would enhance the concep that compute resources are ephemeral. Thus, users can save snapshots, move to a different cloud, then restore the snapshot.

pachctl extract > backup
pachctl restore < backup

How will the feature/concept/idea improve kaos?

Compute and storage will effectively be ephemeral given the typical high cost of running kaos (managed kubernetes is not cheap!)

Can kaos currently support the desired feature/concept/idea?

Possibly.
