Common Runtime for Applications (CRA) is a software layer (library) that makes it easy to create and deploy distributed dataflow-style applications on top of resource managers such as Kubernetes, YARN, and stand-alone cluster execution. Currently, we support stand-alone execution (just deploy an .exe on every machine in your cluster) as well as execution in a Kubernetes/Docker environment.
After you clone the source code, check out the wiki at https://github.com/Microsoft/CRA/wiki for instruction on building CRA and running your first sample distributed application - either locally or in a Kubernetes (Windows) cluster using a Docker image of CRA. We have provided detailed step-by-step instructions for accomplishing this in the wiki. We show how to do this on Azure Container Service (ACS), but CRA should work on any other Kubernetes cluster as well.
