slamd server & client containerized

[mrharrison007]

Hi Neil,

Appreciate you pulling this oldie but goodie app along. Do you think one would have success containerizing the server and client and running it in K8S?

It may be possible, but it's not something I have a lot of expertise with, nor a lot of time to work on.

It's likely the case that it would be substantially easier to do this for the client, as it probably only needs a minimal set of configuration. However, the server has an embedded database that contains all the data, and that's not something that you'd want to treat as a disposable resource. For containerization purposes, it would probably be better to externalize the database, but that would be a lot of work.
