Getting started with KOBIL Shift Deployment
Getting started with KOBIL Shift Deployment
The KOBIL Shift Ecosystem is an application suite hosted on Kubernetes platform delivered by a Helm chart packages (via private KOBIL Chart repository) with references to a private KOBIL image repository for pulling the KOBIL images. The application suite is strictly docker image based and compatible to higher level orchestration tools on top of kubernetes - like Openshift. The KOBIL Shift services install is flexible by configuration at time of deployment. So one install fits to all requirements by specific deployment configuration.
At technology level the Shift deployment is using Operator
technology per Shift-Operator which is loading the KOBIL service images
from private KOBIL image repository. The KOBIL Shift Operator
make use of external operators (Istio and Strimzi Kafka) to create required resources.
At infrastructure level the KOBIL Shift is by default implemented using
a Service-Mesh Network services (i.e Istio - ISTIO-Gateway and
VirtualServices) which provides connectivity between KOBIL Services and
Service-Provider Loadbalancer or Gateway to have the services exposed.
