Scalable reinforcement learning agents on container orchestration
Implement scalable reinforcement learning agent on the container orchestraion system like k8s.
- Kubernetes
- Google Cloud Platform
- IMPALA
- A3C
- TBD
This example will introduce a clear way to deploy scalable reinforcement learning agents to the computing clusters.
$ git clone https://github.com/chris-chris/haiku-scalable-example

wanna see logs?
$ docker ps
$ docker attach [CONTAINER ID]
- Install minikube
https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-minikube/
- Run
$ kubectl apply -f impala.yml
- Wanna see logs?
$ kubectl logs -f impala learner
$ kubectl logs -f impala actor
- v1. 1 Learner + Multi Actor IMPALA wiring through gRPC.
- v2. 1 Learner + Multi Actor IMPALA wiring through gRPC on docker VMs.
- v3. 1 Learner + Multi Actor IMPALA wiring through gRPC on k8s.
- Optimize the model weight serialization for the performance.
- v4. Multi Learner + Multi Actor IMPALA wiring through gRPC on k8s.
- Implement other distributed RL algorithms
- Asynchronous Processing via Queue
- Monitor the computing resource usages
