Some features and functions are not currently available in the beta release.

Some features of GitLab are not currently available:
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
- [GitLab Pages](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/issues/37)
|
||||
- [GitLab Geo](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/issues/8)
|
||||
- [No in-cluster HA database](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/issues/48)

- MySQL will not be supported, as support is [deprecated within GitLab](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/database.html#using-a-mysql-database-management-server-enterprise-edition-only)
|
||||
|
||||
In order to deploy GitLab on Kubernetes, a few prerequisites are required.
|
||||
## Installing GitLab using the Helm Chart
|
||||
|
||||
The `gitlab` chart includes all required dependencies, and takes a few minutes
|
||||
to deploy.
|
||||
|
||||
TIP: **Tip:**
|
||||
For large scale deployments, we strongly recommend using the
|
||||
[detailed installation instructions](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/blob/master/doc/installation/README.md)
|
||||
utilizing [external Postgres, Redis, and object storage](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/tree/master/doc/advanced) services.
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
In order to deploy GitLab on Kubernetes, the following are required:
|
||||
|
||||
1. `helm` and `kubectl` [installed on your computer](preparation/tools_installation.md).
|
||||
1. A Kubernetes cluster, version 1.8 or higher. 6vCPU and 16GB of RAM is recommended.
|
||||
* [Google GKE](https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/creating-a-container-cluster)
|
||||
* [Amazon EKS](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/getting-started.html)
|
||||
* [Microsoft AKS](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/kubernetes-walkthrough-portal)

|
||||
- [Microsoft AKS](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/kubernetes-walkthrough-portal)
|
||||
1. A [wildcard DNS entry and external IP address](preparation/networking.md)
|
||||
1. [Authenticate and connect](preparation/connect.md) to the cluster
|
||||
1. Configure and initialize [Helm Tiller](preparation/tiller.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuring and Installing GitLab
|
||||
### Deployment of GitLab to Kubernetes
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note**: For deployments to Amazon EKS, there are [additional configuration requirements](preparation/eks.md).
|
||||
To deploy GitLab, the following three parameters are required:
|
||||
|
||||
For simple deployments, running all services within Kubernetes, only three parameters are required:
|
||||
- `global.hosts.domain`: the [base domain](preparation/networking.md) of the wildcard host entry. For example, `mycompany.io` if the wild card entry is `*.mycompany.io`.
|
||||
- `global.hosts.externalIP`: the [external IP](preparation/networking.md) which the wildcard DNS resolves to.
|
||||
- `certmanager-issuer.email`: Email address to use when requesting new SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt.
|
||||
- `global.hosts.domain`: the [base domain](preparation/networking.md) of the
|
||||
wildcard host entry. For example, `exampe.com` if the wild card entry is
|
||||
`*.example.com`.
|
||||
- `global.hosts.externalIP`: the [external IP](preparation/networking.md) which
|
||||
the wildcard DNS resolves to.
|
||||
- `certmanager-issuer.email`: the email address to use when requesting new SSL
|
||||
certificates from Let's Encrypt.
|
||||
|
||||
For enterprise deployments, or to utilize advanced settings, please use the instructions in the [`gitlab` chart project](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab) for the most up to date directions.
|
||||
- [External Postgres, Redis, and other dependencies](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/tree/master/doc/advanced)
|
||||
- [Persistence settings](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/blob/master/doc/installation/storage.md)
|
||||
- [Manual TLS certificates](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/blob/master/doc/installation/tls.md)
|
||||
- [Manual secret creation](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/blob/master/doc/installation/secrets.md)
|
||||
NOTE: **Note:**
|
||||
For deployments to Amazon EKS, there are
|
||||
[additional configuration requirements](preparation/eks.md). A full list of
|
||||
configuration options is [also available](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/blob/master/doc/installation/command-line-options.md).
|
||||
|
||||
For additional configuration options, consult the [full list of settings](https://gitlab.com/charts/gitlab/blob/master/doc/installation/command-line-options.md).
|
||||
Once you have all of your configuration options collected, you can get any
|
||||
dependencies and run helm. In this example, the helm release is named "gitlab":

* This chart has been tested on Google Kubernetes Engine and Azure Container Service.

**[This chart is beta](#limitations), and is the best way to install GitLab on Kubernetes today.** A new [cloud native GitLab chart](index.md#cloud-native-gitlab-chart) is in development with increased scalability and resilience, among other benefits. Once available, the cloud native chart will be the recommended installation method for Kubernetes, and this chart will be deprecated.
