Installing on Kubernetes
You can find information about the methods and considerations for installation of HCL DevOps Velocity (Velocity) in a Kubernetes cluster.
There are two methods in which you can install Velocity in a Kubernetes cluster that depends on whether your infrastructure is secured with a network firewall or not.
When your infrastructure is not secured with a network firewall, you can use the Online method of installation. In the online method, your computer must connect via the Internet to a remote repository to continuously download the Docker image for the installation.
When your infrastructure is secured with a network firewall, you can use the Offline method of installation.
The following table provides a comparison of the two methods of installation:
Parameter | Online method | Offline method |
---|---|---|
Infrastructure protection | Not secured by firewalls | Secured by firewalls |
Internet connectivity | Required | Not required |
Size of the downloaded installation file | Small | Larger than the one used in online method |
Perform the tasks in the Installation prerequisites section before you proceed to installation. See Installation prerequisites.
