Installing Sametime in a Kubernetes environment
A Sametime deployment on Kubernetes requires a properly configured cluster consisting of a minimum of four nodes: a control plane and three worker nodes with an Ingress Controller.
The following white papers are available to review this setup for GKE (Google),
AWS (Amazon) and on-premise configurations. Use these white papers for
additional details on the installation and configuration steps for
Kubernetes.
- HCL Sametime Premium 12.0 FP1 - Full stack Kubernetes Deployment
- Deploying HCL Sametime Meetings on AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)
- Deploying Sametime 12 on Google Kubernetes Engine
If you are installing on an Openshift platform, review the Preparing to install an Openshift environment topic before starting the install process.
See the HCL Sametime® System Requirements document for support in Kubernetes and Helm versions.
Ensure that Promethus is installed before starting the Sametime install process. See Installing Prometheus for details.
After the Kubernetes cluster is built, complete the following tasks to deploy
Sametime.
Note: The helm charts and templates provided were
tested with 1.22. Later versions of Kubernetes might not be
compatible.
