Kyvos Azure Marketplace   Kyvos GCP Marketplace Kyvos Single Node Installation (Kyvos SNI)

Once you have created Kyvos Manager node see details to create it, you can proceed with wizard-based deployment.

From Kyvos 2024.12 onwards, the Kubernetes cluster can be used in either dedicated mode or shared mode. When a cluster is used in shared mode, the node pool of the cluster can be used in dedicated or shared mode. Full support for namespaces is provided, allowing users to create and use existing namespaces. If a namespace with the specified name is not found, a new namespace with the provided name will be created.

Select the following option for wizard-based Azure deployment via Kyvos Manager.

• I have all the resources: Select this option to use the resources created for Kyvos cluster to deploy on Azure.

  1. If the Stack that was created through Azure Template Specs, use the procedure listed here.

  2. If the resources are created externally (not using the stack), use the procedure listed here.

This option installs Kyvos services on configured resources based on your Azure account information. 

Using Flexible Server as Kyvos Manager repository in Azure

Configuring Flexible Server as Kyvos Manager repository

1. Create Flexible server.
   For more details about how to create a flexible server, see Step -3 mentioned on the Prerequisites for Flexible Server section.

2. Once Kyvos Manager node is created and extracted the bundle. You must not start Kyvos Manager services.  

3. Configure the jdbc.properties of Kyvos Manager (manually) with the Flexible Server details, do the following:  

   1. Before configuring the jdbc.properties, ensure that Kyvos Manager must not be started. 

   2. Replace the server name in jdbc URL with the server name, port, and SSL of the Flexible server. 

      Open

      

      jdbc.url=jdbc:postgresql://<Servername>:<port>/kmrepo?sslmode=require
      For example,
      jdbc.url=jdbc:postgresql://kyvosmanager-postgresserver-5122.postgres.database.azure.com:5432/kmrepo?sslmode=require

   3. jdbc.username must be kmdbuser. 

   4. Set the value of useBundledRepo and manageBundledRepoService to ‘false.’ 

4. Start Kyvos Manager using the ./start-km.sh command.
