Abstract
A method makes container services persistently available. A computing device receives a request for implementation of a user job in a container environment, and assigns the user job to a compute runner agent of a plurality of compute runner agents to execute the user job. Each compute runner agent is associated with a compute container instance having a unique compute container identifier corresponding to the user job. A computing device assigns the user job to a balancer task to monitor progress of the user job, and assigns the user job to a storage agent to store artifacts associated with running the user job. A computing device receives a notification from the balancer task describing whether the runner agent is correctly running the user job. In response to the runner agent incorrectly running the user job, a computing device resurrects the user job in a new compute container instance.
