Install options¶

With helm¶

Iter8 can be installed and configured to watch resources either in a single namespace (namespace-scoped) or in the whole cluster (cluster-scoped).

helm install --repo https://iter8-tools.github.io/iter8 --version 1.1 iter8 controller

helm install --repo https://iter8-tools.github.io/iter8 --version 1.1 iter8 controller \
--set clusterScoped=true

To install Iter8 in a non-default namespace, use the -n option.

With kustomize¶

Iter8 can be installed and configured to watch resources either in a single namespace (namespace-scoped) or in the whole cluster (cluster-scoped).

kubectl apply -k 'https://github.com/iter8-tools/iter8.git/kustomize/controller/namespaceScoped?ref=v1.1.1'

kubectl apply -k 'https://github.com/iter8-tools/iter8.git/kustomize/controller/clusterScoped?ref=v1.1.1'

To install Iter8 in a non-default namespace, download the kustomize folder and modify the namespace field in the kustomization.yaml file.

Install for production use¶

By default, Iter8 uses BadgerDB to store metrics from A/B/n and performance tests. BadgerDB is not suitable for production use. To install for production, use Redis.

Install using Rancher Desktop¶

Rancher does not support a standard storage class by default. Install the local path provisioner:

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner/v0.0.26/deploy/local-path-storage.yaml

And set metrics.badgerdb.storageClassName when starting the Iter8 controller:

--set metrics.badgerdb.storageClassName=local-path
