Concise monthly summary for 2025-03 focused on reliability improvements and queueing stability in the Open-EO geopyspark driver. Key work centered on stabilizing Yunikorn/Kubernetes queue handling and refining concurrency behavior to align with queue semantics, with a focus on business value and maintainability.

Feb 1, 2025

February 2025 focused on delivering flexible deployment customization and per-user resource isolation in Open-EO/openeo-geopyspark-driver. Implemented Spark application volume mounts customization by removing default volume mounts in templates, enabling user-defined naming and overrides, with tests updated to reflect the new behavior. Introduced user-specific Yunikorn queues for batch jobs, adding an option to append the user ID to the base queue for granular resource isolation per user. Included targeted bug fix to remove an assertion around volume mounts to align with configurable deployments, with corresponding test coverage. These changes reduce deployment friction, improve multi-tenant isolation, and demonstrate strength in Kubernetes/Spark integration, template management, and testing.

Jan 1, 2025

January 2025 monthly summary for EOEPCA/eoepca-plus focused on delivering operational OpenEO processing backends and robust deployment automation. Key features delivered include enabling the GeoPySpark-based OpenEO processing backend, organizing and configuring the layer catalog, updating chart versions, and simplifying backend configuration management, coupled with restart-testing scaffolding to validate configuration changes. A critical bug fix addressed the parsing of multi-line layerCatalog strings to prevent configuration errors. In parallel, OpenEO Federated backend deployment and ArgoCD integration were streamlined by refining the openeofed deployment, removing brittle volume mounts, and enabling auto-restart on configmap changes.
