Adds HorizontalPodAutoscaler resources for the three load-responsive
Deployments:
- prop (web): min 2, max 5, averageValue 800m CPU
- prop-grid-rs: min 1, max 4, averageValue 400m
- hrrr-point-rs: min 1, max 4, averageValue 400m
- prop-backfill is intentionally unmanaged (queue-driven, not CPU-bound)
The scale-up policy reacts in 30 s with up-to-2-pods or +100 % per
window; scale-down stabilises over 10 min so the hourly propagation
chain doesn't churn replicas right after the :05 cron.
Removes `spec.replicas` from the HPA-managed Deployments so Flux's
periodic reconcile stops fighting HPA's live scaling decisions.
Drops `podAntiAffinity` from prop, prop-grid-rs, and hrrr-point-rs
so HPA can actually reach its maxReplicas when one physical host has
capacity for two pods; the scheduler picks whatever fits.
Updates runbook + project memory to drop the `talos5` hostname —
Postgres is now addressed strictly by IP (10.0.15.30).
Phase 3 Stream C Rust side. Completes the HrrrFetchWorker port.
Pipeline:
- db::claim_next_hrrr_task — FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED on hrrr_fetch_tasks,
newest valid_time first. Accepts the points JSONB directly.
- hrrr_points::process_batch — fetch surface + pressure GRIB2 once
per task (tokio::try_join), decode via the existing wgrib2 plumbing,
then for each requested point pull the cell and UPSERT INTO
hrrr_profiles (conflict on lat/lon/valid_time).
- db::complete_hrrr_task / fail_hrrr_task — status transitions; Elixir
backfill re-enqueues failed rows on next /30-min scan.
Shipping pieces:
- new bin src/bin/hrrr_point_worker.rs
- new module src/hrrr_points.rs (process_batch, upsert_profile)
- new Cargo [[bin]] entry; Dockerfile builds both binaries in one stage
and ships them in the runtime image so a single CI pipeline covers
the whole cluster
- k8s/deployment-hrrr-point-rs.yaml (1 replica, 1 Gi limit, anti-affinity
against prop-grid-rs so chain + point work don't fight for wgrib2
slots). Uses the same image; command: override picks the right binary.
- kustomization.yaml: include the new deployment so flux applies it
- deployment-grid-rs.yaml: bump readiness initialDelaySeconds 3→15 +
failureThreshold 3→6 so a slow DB connect during startup can't race
the first probe
119 Rust tests green.
Extracts the memory-hostile HRRR fetch → decode → score pipeline for
forecast hours 1–18 into a separate Rust service (`prop-grid-rs`).
Elixir retains f00 with its native-duct + NEXRAD + commercial-link
enrichment; Rust handles the other 18 steps per hourly chain.
Hand-off via a new `grid_tasks` table (`FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` claim
from Rust, Postgrex `NOTIFY propagation_ready` back to Elixir). Rust
writes the same on-disk score-grid format Elixir already uses, to the
same `/data/scores` NFS tree. Phase 1 ships in shadow mode with
PROP_SCORES_DIR=/data/scores_shadow.
Rust crate layout at `rust/prop_grid_rs/` (1:1 module parity with the
Elixir source it ports):
- grid, region, band_config, scores_file, sounding_params
- scorer: all 10 factors + composite. Matches the Elixir scorer
byte-for-byte across 115 golden-fixture samples (5 scenarios
× 23 bands).
- decoder: wgrib2 subprocess + Fortran-record lola-binary parser
- fetcher: HRRR URL derivation + idx cache (1h TTL) + 8-way
parallel byte-range downloads with 429/5xx retry
- pipeline: end-to-end chain step, f00 rejected at the boundary
- db: sqlx grid_tasks claim/complete + propagation_ready NOTIFY
- bin/worker: tokio main loop, JSON logs, SIGTERM-safe
91 Rust tests + clippy -D warnings clean. 2,158 Elixir tests green.
Elixir additions:
- `GridTaskEnqueuer` seeds fh=1..18 rows from
`PropagationGridWorker.seed_chain/0`
- `NotifyListener` LISTEN → warm `ScoreCache` → PubSub fan-out
- `ShadowComparator` diffs prod vs shadow `.ntms` bodies
- `mix rust.golden` task writes the Rust-side golden fixture
k8s: new `deployment-grid-rs.yaml` pinned to talos5 (32 GB NUC) via
`prop-grid-rs=primary` nodeSelector + `workload=grid-rs:NoSchedule`
toleration, 512 Mi limit, sharing the existing NFS `/data` mount.
The plan document is at `plans/vivid-hatching-quail.md` (local to my
workstation); phases 2 (cutover) and 3 (talos5 concurrency tuning)
follow after 72h of shadow-mode parity.
PROP_ROLE=backfill drops the hot-path propagation/commercial/solar
queues and the Cron plugin. Paired with a dedicated Deployment
(nodeSelector: prop-backfill=true, 4Gi memory, no web) this lets 8GB
T620 workers drain the hrrr/weather/terrain/iemre/narr backfill
queues without competing with the hourly grid chain.
A dedicated Prometheus at 10.0.15.25 on the private network can now
scrape the cluster via `<any-node-ip>:30090/metrics`. Scrape rotates
across pods; BEAM metrics stay representative as a sample and the
oban queue-depth gauge reads from the shared DB so all pods report
the same value.
After the BFG scrub, k8s/secret.yaml is git-ignored (contains plaintext
credentials) but kustomization.yaml still listed it as a resource. Flux
has been failing to kustomize-build the prop-app for six days, so no
deployment since main-1776019122-8d1d7e4 has actually reached prod —
the beacons crash fix, UTC clock fix, ASOS nudging, MRMS, contact
detail async hydration, and email config change were all stuck.
The `prop-secrets` Secret is applied out-of-band with kubectl and lives
independently in the cluster; Flux no longer needs to track it.
