Pipeline optimization

Pipeline optimization (Groundswell) uses resource usage data from previous workflow runs to optimize subsequent runs. Deploy after your Platform installation is complete.

Deployment options

Method	Guide
Helm	Pipeline optimization: Helm
Kubernetes	Pipeline optimization: Kubernetes
Docker Compose	Pipeline optimization: Docker Compose

See each deployment guide for detailed requirements.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you need:

• A running Seqera Platform Enterprise deployment

• A MySQL 8 database separate from the one used by Seqera Platform

  • For example, to create a new database schema pipeline_optimization and user called pipeline_optimization_admin, you can run the following SQL commands:

    CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `pipeline_optimization`;
    CREATE USER 'pipeline_optimization_admin'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'set_a_secure_password_here';
    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `pipeline_optimization`.* TO 'pipeline_optimization_admin'@'%';
    FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

• Access to the Seqera Enterprise MySQL database (Pipeline Optimization requires direct access to the Seqera database to read workflow execution data)

  • Read-only access is sufficient

  • For example, to create a read-only user called pipeline_optimization_ro and let it access your Seqera Enterprise database called seqera_enterprise, you can run the following SQL commands:

    CREATE USER 'pipeline_optimization_ro'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'set_a_secure_password_here';
    GRANT SELECT ON `seqera_enterprise`.* TO 'pipeline_optimization_ro'@'%';
    FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Configuration
