From now on, you can easily install ONLYOFFICE Docs into Kubernetes or OpenShift cluster with just several commands thanks to Helm. Read on for more details.
About Helm
Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes, an open-source container orchestrator.
Helm streamlines the installation and management of Kubernetes applications and can be compared to RPM or DEB packages in Linux, providing a convenient way for developers to package and ship an application to end users.
Helm uses a packaging format called Chart, a collection of files that describes a related set of Kubernetes resources.
Why to use Helm?
Once you have Helm installed and configured, you can deploy production-ready applications into your Kubernetes* cluster with one simple ‘helm install’ command. When needed, you can remove the installed applications in your cluster also with a single command.
*You can install ONLYOFFICE Docs into OpenShift cluster as well. OpenShift is an enterprise-ready Kubernetes-based container platform.
