Instana is an APM solution built for microservices that enables IT Ops to build applications faster and deliver higher quality services by automating monitoring, tracing and root cause analysis. The solution is optimized for Kubernetes and OpenShift.

This repository contains the Kubernetes Operator to install and manage the Instana agent.

There are two ways to install the operator:

• Creating the required resources manually
• Using the Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM)

This documentation section describes configuration options you can set via the Instana Agent CRD and environment variables.

• docs/build.md describes how to build the Docker image from source code.
• docs/testing-with-kind.md shows how to test the operator in a local Kind cluster.
• docs/run-operator-registry-locally.md describes how to set up a local Operator Lifecycle Manager and Registry to test the OLM deployment locally.

Please see the guidelines in CONTRIBUTING.md.
