In Bioconductor/BiocKubeInstall: Build R / Bioconductor package binaries using Kubernetes on a cloud service

BiocKubeInstall

Internal Bioconductor package used to create binaries for docker images produced by Bioconductor. The package installation and binary creation is parallelized on a Kubernetes cluster launched (at the moment) on a Kubernetes cluster using GKE.

The package works in sync with the Bioconductor/k8sredis kubernetes application.
