Hello, i have a few questions about hdfs deep storage. We are working on AliCloud, and we want to use Alibaba Object Storage Service(OSS) as hdfs deep storage. We are trying to configure hdfs deep storage to use OSS as deep storage. We are working on Kubernetes. Is there anyone working with pinot on alibaba cloud? Or can anyone help us for that? Also i wonder that does pinot controllers and servers tries to connect deep storage while pods are creating? Because we set deep storage configs and put jars after pod is created

I am not aware of Pinot being used on Alibaba cloud, but let's see if someone responds here. I am unclear on your question on OSS, but assuming you want Pinot to use OSS as the deepstore, then you just need to implement PinotFS interface to create OSS plugin. Pinot controller will probably have some access initialization for PinotFS (OSS in your case). Will need to check if it an cause any issues for you.

does AliCloud provide a managed k8s cluster which you can use, similar to AWS EKS ?

Yes it provides managed k8s

then you can run helmChart on that
