When enabled, Kubeflow will report anonymous usage data using spartakus, Kubernetes' reporting tool. Spartakus does not report any personal information. See here for more detail. This is entirely voluntary and you can opt out by doing the following
ks param set spartakus reportUsage false
# Delete any existing deployments of spartakus
kubectl delete -n ${NAMESPACE} deploy spartakus-volunteer
To explictly enable usage reporting repeat the above steps setting reportUsage to true
ks param set spartakus reportUsage true
# Delete any existing deployments of spartakus
kubectl delete -n ${NAMESPACE} deploy spartakus-volunteer
Reporting usage data is one of the most signifcant contributions you can make to Kubeflow; so please consider turning it on. This data allows us to improve the project and helps the many companies working on Kubeflow justify continued investement.
You can improve the quality of the data by giving each Kubeflow deployment a unique id
ks param set spartakus usageId $(uuidgen)
