Intrexx standalone in Kubernetes

Prerequisite

This deployment requires helm version>3.0 to be installed. The namespace in the yaml-files has to be changed to the desired namespace. The deployment steps have to be executed in the given order. It is assumed that a default namespace is set and the yaml files are modified accordingly.

If you want to change the namespace values of the helm charts you have to append --namespace yournamespace to every helm command listed below.

Postgresql installation

Required files:

1. ix-db-pvc.yaml
2. ix-db.yaml

Commands:

kubectl apply -f ix-db-pvc.yaml

helm install ix-db oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/postgresql -f ix-db.yaml

After this command, the output should be copied.

Solr installation

Required files:

1. ix-solr-pvc.yaml

Commands

kubectl apply -f ix-solr-pvc.yaml

helm install ix-solr oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/solr -f ix-solr.yaml
