# Kueue

> Install Kueue on Kubernetes.

export const version = 'v1.13';

[Kueue](https://kueue.sigs.k8s.io) is a kubernetes-native system that manages quotas and how jobs consume them. Kueue decides when a job should wait, when a job should be admitted to start (as in pods can be created) and when a job should be preempted (as in active pods should be deleted).

## 1. Install kueue via kubectl

Create a Kubernetes cluster with [`talosctl`](../../omni/getting-started/how-to-install-talosctl) or via [Omni](../../omni/overview/what-is-omni).

Run Kueue via the release manifest

```sh theme={null}
kubectl apply --server-side -f https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kueue/releases/download/v0.14.2/manifests.yaml
```

To get metrics from jobs you also need to have Prometheus installed and servicemonitor CRDs.

## 2. Install Prometheus operator

The [Prometheus Operator](https://prometheus-operator.dev/docs/getting-started/installation/) will scrape metrics from your jobs so you can observe their status.

```bash theme={null}
LATEST=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/prometheus-operator/prometheus-operator/releases/latest | jq -cr .tag_name)
curl -sL https://github.com/prometheus-operator/prometheus-operator/releases/download/${LATEST}/bundle.yaml | kubectl create -f -
```

Instructions on how to install the Prometheus Operator via kustomize or Helm can be found in [their documentation](https://prometheus-operator.dev/docs/getting-started/installation/).

## 3. Install servicemonitor CRD

The final step is to add the CRD for Prometheus to scrape the jobs.

```bash theme={null}
kubectl apply --server-side -f https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kueue/releases/download/v0.14.2/prometheus.yaml
```

To use Kueue please refer to the [official Kueue documentation](https://kueue.sigs.k8s.io/docs/concepts/).
