Deployment Modes

YuniKorn deployment mode

YuniKorn can be deployed in "standard" mode, an only way to run the scheduler as a standalone Kubernetes scheduler.

Standard mode is the only available option and set as default too. It is stable, efficient, and very performant. It is well-suited for all YuniKorn deployments and is recommended.

It is recommended to run the admission controller as well, as this will ensure that only a single scheduler is active within your Kubernetes cluster. In this mode, the default Kubernetes scheduler (which is always running) will be bypassed for all pods except YuniKorn itself.
