Overview

This guide provides a walkthrough on how to deploy a GreptimeDB cluster on Kubernetes.

Prerequisites​

  • Kubernetes >= 1.18

    NOTE

    You can use kind or Minikube to create a local Kubernetes cluster for testing.

  • Helm v3: A package manager for Kubernetes.

Components​

The deployment on Kubernetes involves the following components:

  • GreptimeDB Operator: Assists engineers in managing GreptimeDB clusters effectively on Kubernetes.
  • GreptimeDB Cluster: The main database cluster.
  • etcd Cluster: etcd is a consistent and highly available key value store used for GreptimeDB cluster metadata storage.

Next Steps​

To deploy GreptimeDB on Kubernetes, follow these steps:

  • Deploy GreptimeDB Operator: This section guides you on installing the GreptimeDB Operator.
  • Deploy GreptimeDB Cluster: This section provides instructions on how to deploy etcd cluster and GreptimeDB cluster on Kubernetes.
  • Destroy Cluster: This section describes how to uninstall the GreptimeDB Operator and the GreptimeDB cluster.
