Perform Installation on Azure

In this section, you will install GoodData.CN on your configured Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster. Using Helm, you will deploy the GoodData.CN Helm chart with customized configurations, ensuring that all components are correctly set up and integrated within your Azure environment.

Steps:

1. Create a helm chart configuration file for GoodData.CN:

   cat <<EOF > gooddata-values.yaml
   license:
     existingSecret: $GD_LICENSE_KEY_SECRET
   deployPostgresHA: false
   deployDexIdP: false
   service:
     postgres:
       host: $PG_HOSTNAME
       port: $PG_PORT
       username: $PG_ADMIN_NAME
       existingSecret: $PG_CREDENTIALS_SECRET
   podDisruptionBudget:
     maxUnavailable: 1
   metadataApi:
     encryptor:
       existingSecret: $GD_ENCRYPTION_KEYSET_SECRET
   resultCache:
     totalCacheLimit: 10Gi
   quiver:
     fsDatasourceFsStorage:
       storageSize: 10Gi
       storageClassName: azureblob-nfs-premium
     datasourceFs:
       storageType: FS
     durableStorageType: FS
     fsDurableStorage:
       storageClassName: azureblob-nfs-premium
   exportController:
     fsExportStorage:
       storageClassName: azureblob-nfs-premium
       pvcRequestStorageSize: 10Gi
   EOF
   

2. Run the Helm upgrade command to install GoodData.CN:

   helm -n gooddata-cn upgrade --install gooddata-cn gooddata-cn \
     --wait --timeout 20m --repo https://charts.gooddata.com \
     --version 3.14.0 -f gooddata-values.yaml
   

3. Verify the installation by checking the status of your pods:

   kubectl get pods --namespace gooddata-cn
   

   Ensure that all pods are in the Running state. If any pods are stuck in Pending, Error, or CrashLoopBackOff states, you will need to diagnose and resolve these issues before proceeding.

4. Save the gooddata-values.yaml somewhere to reuse in the future for when you decide to upgrade GoodData.CN to a newer version.
