VMware Tanzu provides a managed Kubernetes environment for deploying modern applications, and has been certified with YugabyteDB, allowing developers to easily scale relational SQL workloads in cloud-native microservices applications. The joint solution also benefits operations teams by providing a cloud-native database that runs on the same platform as other stateless application services, making it easy to manage and deploy. To get started with YugabyteDB on Tanzu Kubernetes, users can follow a series of steps including installing the Helm chart, creating service accounts, updating the container repository, and deploying the cluster. The resulting YugabyteDB cluster provides a highly available distributed SQL database that can be easily managed and scaled using Kubernetes tools.
