Support Distributing of large artifacts via BitTorrent

Open fkorotkov opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

We should investigate an option of a feature to distribute large artifacts to persistent workers via BitTorrent. A use case is to distribute large VMs for the isolation feature (#198). Each VM can be up to 60Gb and distributing an update to dozens or hundreds of workers from a single server is just too slow.

Cirrus Cloud can act as tracker and the CLI will receive a download assignment on a poll.

TBD is how to provide a torrent file and how to upload a file for seeding... Just creating the issue to open a discussion.
