Apache SkyWalking is application performance monitor tool for distributed systems, especially designed for microservices, cloud native and container-based (Docker, K8s, Mesos) architectures.
This chart bootstraps a Apache SkyWalking deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.
- Kubernetes 1.9.6+
- PV dynamic provisioning support on the underlying infrastructure (StorageClass)
- Helm 3
To install the chart with the release name my-release:
$ helm install my-release skywalking -n <namespace>The command deploys Apache SkyWalking on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The configuration section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.
Tip: List all releases using
helm list
To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:
$ helm uninstall my-release -n <namespace>The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install. For example,
$ helm install myrelease skywalking --set nameOverride=newSkywalkingAlternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the above parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,
$ helm install my-release skywalking -f values.yamlTip: You can use the default values.yaml
Roles and RoleBindings resources will be created automatically for OAP .
Tip: You can refer to the default
oap-role.yamlfile in templates to customize your own.
If your cluster allows automatic create/retrieve of TLS certificates ( e.g. kube-lego), please refer to the documentation for that mechanism.
To manually configure TLS, first create/retrieve a key & certificate pair for the address(skywalking ui) you wish to protect. Then create a TLS secret in the namespace:
kubectl create secret tls skywalking-tls --cert=path/to/tls.cert --key=path/to/tls.keyInclude the secret's name, along with the desired hostnames, in the skywalking-ui Ingress TLS section of your
custom values.yaml file:
ui:
ingress:
## If true, Skywalking ui server Ingress will be created
##
enabled: true
## Skywalking ui server Ingress hostnames
## Must be provided if Ingress is enabled
##
hosts:
- skywalking
## Skywalking ui server Ingress TLS configuration
## Secrets must be manually created in the namespace
##
tls:
- secretName: skywalking
hosts:
