Taktile SRE Challenge

Your challenge is to deploy a python workload on Kubernetes.

Instructions

The goal is to deploy the application from the app directory to a local Kubernetes cluster.

Before running the application, please re-implement the square() function as described in the python file.

Two versions of the python application should be available, with different resource constraints. Both should be available from within the default namespace under specific domain names:

1. A version that outputs the square series (SERIES_VERSION=square)
   • Resource limits: 100m CPU, 100Mi RAM
   • Available as http://square
2. A version that outputs the fibonacci series (SERIES_VERSION=fibonacci)
   • Resource limits: 200m CPU, 200Mi RAM
   • Available as http://fibonacci

To get started with the application (in this case the square version):

pip install -r app/requirements.txt
SERIES_VERSION=square uvicorn --host 0.0.0.0 --app-dir app main:app

To test the application:

curl localhost:8000/series?n=5

{"square": 25}

You may improve upon or modify the elements that are already present, as you see fit.

Objectives

We give roughly equal weight to each of the following:

• Functionality
• Simplicity
• Readability
• Extensibility
• Maintainability
• Observability

Please don't stress if your solution isn't perfect, or is incomplete. With the given time constraints, you won't be able to tick all the boxes above. This challenge is intended as an exercise in tradeoffs. We want to understand how you approach platform building.
