This topic explains Redpanda's tips and recommendations for Kubernetes deployments.

Expose your Redpanda cluster to clients outside of your Kubernetes cluster using a NodePort Service.

Expose your Redpanda cluster to clients outside of your Kubernetes cluster using LoadBalancer Services.

Customize the advertised ports for each listener on all Redpanda brokers, or disable listeners altogether.

Use the Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) framework to provide authentication between Redpanda brokers and clients.

Configure the Helm chart to use PersistentVolumes, hostPath volumes, or emptyDir volumes.

Use TLS to authenticate Redpanda brokers and encrypt communication between clients and brokers.

You can customize the Redpanda Helm chart to configure the cluster and the Kubernetes components that the chart deploys.

Set up data archiving to back up topics to cloud storage.

Remove a broker so that it is no longer considered part of the cluster.

Deleting a PersistentVolume (PV) can be necessary for a variety of reasons, such as removing a broker and its data from the cluster or performing maintenance or upgrades on the PersistentVolume.

This topic describes how to use the Redpanda Helm chart to deploy a Redpanda cluster in Kubernetes.

A diagnostics bundle is a ZIP file with data that can help debug and diagnose issues with a Redpanda cluster, a broker, or the machines on which the brokers are running. You can use this file to debug issues yourself, or you can send it to the Redpanda support team to help resolve your issue.

Enable rack awareness to place partition replicas across different failure zones.

This topic is a checklist with the prerequisites and system requirements for installing production Redpanda in a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm chart.

Configure your Pod resources such as memory, CPU, and storage.

Learn how internal and external connectivity works when Redpanda is running in Kubernetes.

The production deployment tasks involve Kubernetes administrators (admins) as well as Kubernetes users.

Find the default values and descriptions of settings in the Redpanda Console Helm chart.

Find the default values and descriptions of settings in the Redpanda Helm chart.

Kubernetes is a container orchestration tool that helps you to manage Redpanda cluster deployments using declarative configuration files called manifests.

Create read-only topics (Remote Read Replica topics) that mirror topics on a different cluster.

Configure your Redpanda cluster to offload log segments to object storage and save storage costs.

Find advice on how to diagnose and troubleshoot problems with Redpanda in Kubernetes.

To get the best performance from your hardware, set Redpanda to production mode on each worker node and run the autotuner tool. The autotuner identifies the hardware configuration on your worker node and optimizes the Linux kernel to give you the best performance.

Upgrading the Kubernetes version in a cluster ensures that your infrastructure is up to date and secure. This process involves updating the Kubernetes control plane and worker nodes to a new version while also making sure that the Redpanda cluster continues to function with minimal downtime.

How to configure the Helm chart to enable creating your own custom Services to provide external access to a Redpanda cluster.
