# IPFS Cluster - Roadmap
|
|
|
|
## Q3 2017
|
|
|
|
Since Q1 ipfs-cluster has made some progress with a strong effort in reaching a minimal feature set that allows to use it in production settings along with lots of focus on testing. The summary of what has been achieved can be seen in the [Captain's Log](CAPTAIN.log.md).
|
|
|
|
For Q3, this is the tentative roadmap of things on which ipfs-cluster will focus on:
|
|
|
|
* Making all the ipfs-kubernetes tests fit
|
|
* Working on low-hanging fruit: easy features with significant impact
|
|
* Adopting ipfs-cluster as a replacement for the ipfs pin-bot (or deploying a production-maintained ipfs-cluster)
|
|
* Outlining more a Q4 roadmap where development efforts come back in-full to ipfs-cluster
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Q1 2017
|
|
|
|
This quarter is going to be focused on bringing ipfs-cluster to life as a usable product in the IPFS ecosystem. That means:
|
|
|
|
* It should be hard to crash
|
|
* It shouldn't lose track of content
|
|
* It should play well with go-ipfs
|
|
* It should support a replication-factor
|
|
* It should be very well tested
|
|
* It should be very easy to setup and manage
|
|
* It should have stable APIs
|
|
|
|
On these lines, there are several endeavours which stand out for themselves and are officially part of the general IPFS Roadmaps:
|
|
|
|
* Dynamically add and remove cluster peers in an easy fashion (https://github.com/ipfs/pm/issues/353)
|
|
|
|
This involves easily adding a peer (or removing) from a running cluster. `ipfs-cluster-service peer add <maddress>` should work and should update the peer set of all components of all peers, along with their configurations.
|
|
|
|
* Replication-factor-based pinning strategy (https://github.com/ipfs/pm/issues/353)
|
|
|
|
This involves being able to pin an item in, say, 2 nodes only. Cluster should re-pin whenever an item is found to be underpinned, which means that monitoring of pinsets must exist and be automated.
|
|
|
|
* Tests (https://github.com/ipfs/pm/issues/360)
|
|
|
|
In the context of the Interplanetary Test Lab, there should be tests end to end tests in which cluster is tested, benchmarked along with IPFS.
