Memgraph Helm Chart Kubernetes
Blog post from Memgraph
Managing software dependencies across different environments can be challenging, but containerization has become a popular solution, with Kubernetes emerging as the standard for orchestrating containers since its introduction by Google in 2014. Kubernetes requires extensive configuration, often involving repetitive YAML files, and this is where Helm, a package manager for Kubernetes, simplifies the process by allowing developers to package, configure, and deploy applications easily. Memgraph has responded to community demand by releasing a Helm chart repository for deploying Memgraph DB on Kubernetes, allowing users to deploy Memgraph with simple Helm commands in various environments, including cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, or Azure, as well as local setups like Minikube. While the current release is in the early stages, future work aims to enhance Memgraph's integration with Kubernetes through additional Helm charts for Memgraph MAGE and the Memgraph platform, and the community is encouraged to contribute to the ongoing development process.
