Thanos receive "dual-mode" - HA + horizontal scaling

Enable dual-mode so thanos-receive is split into multiple smaller components - horizontal scaling + HA

The following components need to be configured to work together:

receiveDistributor - handles routing to receive pods

thanos-receive-controller - updates hashrings.json file used by receiveDistributor and receive to know about all available replicas

receive

  • replicationFactor of 2 means that metrics are written to 2 receive replicas at the same time ensuring we allow for 1 replica (node) failure (affinity on receive will schedule pods on different nodes and on md nodes in management cluster)
  • autoscaling based on memory consumption is possible and the targetMemory % is automatically calculated so autoscaling triggers when memory limit reaches autoscaleTargetMemoryLimitPercent value
  • exposed the resources, replica count and autoscaling under monitoring.thanos.receive for ease of customization

Closes: #3931 (closed)

Global config for deployment pipelines

  • autorun pipelines
  • allow failure on pipelines
  • record sylvactl events

Notes:

  • Enabling autorun will make deployment pipelines to be run automatically without human interaction
  • Disabling allow failure will make deployment pipelines mandatory for pipeline success.
  • if both autorun and allow failure are disabled, deployment pipelines will need manual triggering but will be blocking the pipeline

Be aware: after configuration change, pipeline is not triggered automatically. Please run it manually (by clicking the run pipeline button in Pipelines tab) or push new code.
