Summary

Deploying Kubernetes for SingleStoreDB orchestration can be daunting, but SingleStoreDB offers fully managed and self-managed services to simplify the process. A production Kubernetes cluster environment requires a multi-layered stack with expertise in monitoring, configuration, paging, logging, dashboards, and security. Novices face steep challenges due to lack of skills in underlying technologies, infrastructure, network, storage, cloud idiosyncrasies, and container concepts. SingleStoreDB's Helios service makes these complexities disappear by handling provisioning, operating, monitoring, and maintaining Kubernetes clusters, while providing a user-friendly interface for scaling, optimizing, and securing the environment.
