We will remove the individual distribution once the single binary distribution is ready. Their jar file will still be published individually though. > > Are we sure about this? I assume that most people downloading the distribution would be interested in the server, not the tool. Imposing the combined distribution would mean for them to download a bunch of jars they don't need. And the opposite is true as well: if I only need the tool, why would I need to download 200Mb of server jars? I second @adutra's concern. Polaris server and admin-tool are separate things. You deploy the _server_ and let it run in k8s (or whatever). Bootstrapping happens rarely and is rather performed from an administrator's machine, whereas the servers run elsewhere. So server and admin-tool are run in very different ways. The admin-tool is (at best) just overhead in a server and increases the size of the image + container. Playing devil's advocate here, having the admin-tool executable accessible from the server gives easy access to the purge functionality. So if you're (in whatever way) able to instruct the Polaris server container to start an arbitrary executable, it could nuke existing data. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
