Deprecated: The cp-helm-charts is deprecated in favor of [Confluent For Kubernetes](https://docs.confluent.io/operator/current/overview.html) .
You can use the Helm charts to deploy services on Kubernetes for development, test, and proof of concept environments.
|
Caution
|
Open Source Helm charts are not supported by Confluent. |
If you want to use Confluent Platform on Kubernetes in a test or production environment, follow these instructions to install Confluent Operator.
The Confluent Platform Helm Charts enable you to deploy Confluent Platform components on Kubernetes for development, test, and proof of concept environments.

Helm is an open-source packaging tool that helps you install applications and services on Kubernetes. Helm uses a packaging format called charts. Charts are a collection of YAML templates that describe a related set of Kubernetes resources.
This repository provides Helm charts for the following Confluent Platform services:
-
ZooKeeper
-
Kafka brokers
-
Kafka Connect
-
Confluent Schema Registry
-
Confluent REST Proxy
-
ksqlDB
-
Confluent Control Center
You must have a Kubernetes cluster that has Helm configured.
These Helm charts have been tested with the following software versions:
-
Kubernetes 1.9.2+
-
Helm 2.8.2+
|
Warning
|
This guide assumes that you’re Helm 2 (tested with Helm 2.16).
You can follow up on Helm 3 issues in #480
|
For local Kubernetes installation with Minikube, see Install Minikube and Drivers.
Follow the directions to install and deploy Helm to the Kubernetes cluster.
View a list of all deployed releases in the local installation.
helm init
helm repo update
helm list|
Important
|
For Helm versions prior to 2.9.1, you may see "connect: connection refused", and will need to fix up the deployment before proceeding.

helm init --service-account tiller --upgradeThe ZooKeeper and Kafka cluster deployed with StatefulSets that have a volumeClaimTemplate which provides the persistent volume for each replica.
You can define the size of the volumes by changing dataDirSize and dataLogDirSize under cp-zookeeper and size under cp-kafka in values.yaml.
You also could use the cloud provider’s volumes by specifying StorageClass. For example, if you are on AWS your storage class will look like this:
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
name: ssd
provisioner: kubernetes.io/aws-ebs
parameters:
type: gp2|
Note
|
To adapt this example to your needs, read the Kubernetes StorageClass documentation. |
The StorageClass that was created can be specified in dataLogDirStorageClass and dataDirStorageClass under cp-zookeeper and in storageClass+ under cp-kafka in values.yaml.
To deploy non-persistent Kafka and ZooKeeper clusters, you must change the value of persistence.enabled under cp-kafka and cp-zookeeper in values.yaml
|
Warning
|
These type of clusters are suitable for strictly development and testing purposes.
The StatefulSets+ are going to use emptyDir volumes, this means that its content strictly related to the pod life cycle and is deleted when the pod goes down.

Naming the chart --name my-confluent-oss is optional, but we assume this is the name in the remainder of the documentation.
Otherwise, helm will generate release name.

Tip
|
All scaling operations should be done offline with no producer or consumer connection. The number of nodes should always be odd number. |
Install cp-helm-charts with default 3 node ensemble
helm install cp-helm-charts
Scale nodes up to 5, change servers under cp-zookeeper to 5 in values.yaml
helm upgrade <release name> cp-helm-charts
Scale nodes down to 3, change servers under cp-zookeeper to 3 in values.yaml
helm upgrade <release name> cp-helm-charts
|
Important
|
Scaling Kafka brokers without doing Partition Reassignment will cause data loss. You must reassign partitions correctly before scaling the Kafka cluster. |
helm install cp-helm-charts
Scale kafka brokers up to 5, change brokers+ under cp-kafka to 5 in values.yaml
helm upgrade <release name> cp-helm-charts
Scale kafka brokers down to 3, change brokers under cp-kafka to
3 in values.yaml
helm upgrade <release name> cp-helm-charts
JMX Metrics are enabled by default for all components, Prometheus JMX Exporter is installed as a sidecar container along with all Pods.
-
Install Prometheus and Grafana in same Kubernetes cluster using helm
helm install stable/prometheus helm install stable/grafana
-
Add Prometheus as Data Source in Grafana, url should be something like:
http://illmannered-marmot-prometheus-server:9090 -
Import dashboard under grafana-dashboard into Grafana
To remove the pods, list the pods with kubectl get pods and then delete the pods by name.
kubectl get pods
kubectl delete pod <podname>To delete the Helm release, find the Helm release name with helm list and delete it with helm delete.
You may also need to clean up leftover StatefulSets, since helm delete can leave them behind.
Finally, clean up all persisted volume claims (pvc) created by this release.
helm list
helm delete <release name>
kubectl delete statefulset <release name>-cp-kafka <release name>-cp-zookeeper
kubectl delete pvc --selector=release=<release name>There are many deployment options to get set up with a Kubernetes cluster, and this document provides instructions for using Minikube to set up a local Kubernetes cluster. Minikube runs a single-node Kubernetes cluster inside a VM on your laptop.
You may alternatively set up a Kubernetes cluster in the cloud using other providers such as Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).
Minikube version 0.23.0 or higher is required for docker server moby/moby#31352], which adds support for using ARG in FROM in your Dockerfile.
First follow the basic Minikube installation instructions.
Then install the Minikube drivers.
Minikube uses Docker Machine to manage the Kubernetes VM so it benefits from the driver plugin architecture that Docker Machine uses to provide a consistent way to manage various VM providers.
Minikube embeds VirtualBox and VMware Fusion drivers so there are no additional steps to use them.
However, other drivers require an extra binary to be present in the host PATH.
|
Important
|
If you are running on macOS, in particular make sure to install the hyperkit drivers for the native OS X hypervisor:
|
brew install hyperkit
minikube config set driver hyperkit #(1)-
Use hyperkit drivel by default
|
Tip
|
The following command increases the memory to 6096 MB and uses the hyperkit driver for the native macOS Hypervisor.
|
-
Start Minikube. The following command increases the memory to 6096 MB and uses the
xhyvedriver for the native macOS Hypervisor.minikube start --kubernetes-version v1.9.4 --cpus 4 --memory 6096 --vm-driver=xhyve --v=8
-
Continue to check status of your local Kubernetes cluster until both minikube and cluster are in Running state
❯ minikube status m01 host: Running kubelet: Running apiserver: Running kubeconfig: Configured
-
Work around Minikube issue #1568.
minikube ssh -- sudo ip link set docker0 promisc on -
Set the context.
eval $(minikube docker-env) kubectl config set-context minikube.internal --cluster=minikube --user=minikube Context "minikube.internal" modified. kubectl config use-context minikube.internal Switched to context "minikube.internal".
