Deployment

Golem Services are distributed as Docker images. They are available in Golem Services Docker Hub (opens in a new tab). Each Docker image is built for the following architectures:

The services are using the following storage backends:

Relational Database (RDB) - PostgreSQL (opens in a new tab) or SQLite (for running locally)
Redis (opens in a new tab)
Blob storage - Shared File System or S3

The following sections provide a description of each service.

cloud-service (opens in a new tab) is responsible for storing entities like projects and accounts in RDB.

golem-component-service (opens in a new tab) is a component registry/management service. The service is using RDB and Blob storage as data storage.

golem-debugging-service (opens in a new tab) is a special executor for running debugging sessions, controlling the execution of agents step by step.

golem-worker-service (opens in a new tab) provides APIs and API Gateway functionality for agents and acts as a routing service for worker executors. The service uses an RDB as data storage.

golem-worker-executor (opens in a new tab) is responsible for running the agents that belong to assigned shards. The service uses Redis and Blob storage as data storage.

golem-shard-manager (opens in a new tab) is a single node in charge of maintaining the worker executors' shard assignments; only one instance can be alive at any given time. The service uses Redis as data storage. See also: configuration (opens in a new tab), environment variables (opens in a new tab), docker image (opens in a new tab)
