Installing Krateo PlatformOps and expose it via LoadBalancer

Basic Installation​

Installing Krateo with default configuration is quick and easy.

You will need:

  • Helm: These instructions were tested with v3.13.1.
  • A Kubernetes cluster.
note

Krateo PlatformOps installer is a flexible workflow engine that executes sequential steps. The installer-chart is a helper that provider already baked configurations for Krateo PlatformOps. It is however possible to implement a custom installer. Please check all the possible values supported by the chart.

Krateo PlatformOps can be exposed via LoadBalancer service type that exposes an IP.

helm repo add krateo https://charts.krateo.io
helm repo update krateo

helm upgrade installer installer \
  --repo https://charts.krateo.io \
  --namespace krateo-system \
  --create-namespace \
  --set krateoplatformops.service.type=LoadBalancer \
  --set krateoplatformops.service.externalIpAvailable=true \
  --install \
  --version 2.3.0 \
  --wait

Wait for Krateo PlatformOps to be up&running:

kubectl wait krateoplatformops krateo --for condition=Ready=True --namespace krateo-system --timeout=300s

At the end of this process:

  • Find the Krateo Composable Portal IP:
kubectl get svc krateo-frontend -n krateo-system  -o=jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].ip}'
  • The Krateo Composable Portal will be accessible at previous IP at port 8080.
  • The admin user password can be retrieved with the following command:
kubectl get secret admin-password  -n krateo-system -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d

The installer by default deploys a composable-portal-basic with examples to immediately start to play with Krateo PlatformOps. The chart is available here: https://github.com/krateoplatformops/composable-portal-basic.
