Installing 5G Event Streaming Applications

The 5G event streaming applications are delivered as images for container creation in a Kubernetes cluster using a Helm chart. The following sections describe the installation process. The procedures assume you have knowledge of and access to the kubectl tool.

Prerequisites

Helm charts must be installed to an existing Kubernetes namespace. Use the kubectl create ns command to create a namespace. The following example creates the matrixx namespace:

kubectl create ns matrixx

Multiple instances can be installed at the same time in the same namespace. In that case, resources are separated by the release name.

The Helm chart assumes that the required images are available in an image repository accessible from the Kubernetes cluster. Specify the URL of this registry and any required credentials in the Helm values file. For more information about available options, see the discussion about chart configuration.

Download the 5G event streaming images and add them to your repository.

Important: To make use of the MATRIXX images at your site, you must upload them to your own private image repository. MATRIXX images must not be uploaded to any public-facing image repositories.
