Deployment of SysON in Kubernetes

[marc-zeller]

Hello,

do you have any experiences/best practices deploying SysON in an Kubernetes cluster?

When I try to convert the docker-compose file to a kubectl yml file, I end up with the following issues
java.net.UnknownHostException: database

Regards,
Marc

Hello Marc,

I'm sorry, but no we don't have any experiences/best practices deploying SysON in an Kubernetes cluster.

Did you convert the file yourself? Or did you use a tool like https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/translate-compose-kubernetes/?

Hello,

@AxelRICHARD I'm also interested in a helm chart to deploy SysON in a Kubernetes cluster 😄

@marc-zeller from what you've shared it seems that the SysON container cannot reach the database.

1. Have you deployed a database?
2. Did you set the environment variables (through a configMap for example) for the container like the docker-compose shows?
3. Bonus 1, use secrets for the database password.
4. Bonus 2, If you're not familiar with kubernetes, I'll suggest to write an helm chart to deploy rather than using kubectl. It will be easier to maintain

Best regards,

[marc-zeller]

Dear Richard, dear brieuc-kzs,

I used kompose to convert the docker-compose file. Meanwhile, I found out, that I needed to explicitly add the database port 5432 in the docker-compose file so that kompose can convert the file correctly. Now, the issue is resolved :-)

Marc
