Folding@K8S is the Sunnyvale's effort to port the Folding@Home client on Kubernetes.
The idea is fairy simple: donate the unused Kubernetes cluster CPUs to help finding cures for diseases like cancer, ALS, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, Influenza and lately COVID-19.
We packaged the FAHClient in a Docker image, available on DockerHUB following this repo sunnyvale/folding-at-k8s
We leveraged the Helm packaging system to streamline the deployment procedure on your Kubernetes cluster. To install Folding@K8S on a Kubernetes cluster please refer to this README.md.
In this case, using a DeamonSet K8S resource you deploy a single-container Pod on each cluster node.
You can help folding using Docker or a Docker Swarm cluster. To run the client as a Docker container, please refer to this README.md
