Here is the development roadmap for v0.6.0. Contributions and feedback are welcome.

P1: Critical Path Items

• In-place Update Enhancement

  • Warm-up stage: Introduce pre-pulled images and pre-warmed models to reduce service downtime (Owner: @Syspretor)
  • In-place recreate: Fallback mechanism when standard in-place updates fail
  • Resource reservation: Ensure deterministic scheduling during non-in-place updates
  • Redundant capacity: Warm up spare capacity to accelerate MaxSurge readiness and GPU utilization

• Coordinated Update Improvements

  • Clarify trigger conditions
  • State machine tracking
  • Dependency configuration interactions

• Workload Management

  • InstanceSet stateful mode: Enable as default workload with Stateful/LWS compatibility
  • Template optimization: Reduce duplication via templateRef

• Documentation

  • Mooncake Deployment Guide
  • End-to-End Upgrade Practices
  • InstanceSet Deployment Procedures (single-node/multi-node)
  • Coordination Update Specifications

Coordination

• Coordinated Scaling: Scale specific roles by defined ratios during scaling events

Schedule

• Flexible Topology Scheduling:
  Multi-level scheduling with hard/soft constraints and weighted preferences
• Multi-level Gang Scheduling:
  Co-scheduling for dependent pod groups
• Coordinated Scheduling:
  Enforce affinity/anti-affinity policies between coordinated roles

RoleBasedGroupSet

• RBGS-level RollingUpdate implementation
• State machine refinement and status reporting

CLI (rbgctl) Enhancement

• SLA-driven configuration: Integrate Dynamo AIConfigurator for initial RBG recommendations
• Lifecycle management improvements
