Deploying Redpanda in air-gapped Kubernetes environments requires careful consideration of security and connectivity constraints typical in such setups. Redpanda provides a streamlined deployment through its single binary architecture, requiring minimal components like the Redpanda container, with optional additions such as the Console and Connector containers for enhanced functionality. It supports deployment via Helm charts, which can be configured to work in environments with varying levels of internet access, including those that are fully offline. Connectivity within Kubernetes can be managed through ClusterIP, NodePort, or LoadBalancer, depending on whether external access is needed, with NodePort offering a cost-effective and low-latency solution. Security and performance optimization are key, with Redpanda containers designed to operate with minimal privileges and optional tuning pods available for resource management. For high availability and management, multiple Redpanda Console pods and LoadBalancer configurations are recommended. Redpanda's adaptability to air-gapped environments underscores its utility for enterprises prioritizing security and data sovereignty, and additional support can be accessed through the Redpanda community.
