Chapter 2 Installing MySQL Operator for Kubernetes

Table of Contents

2.1 Install using Helm Charts

2.2 Install using Manifest Files

Two different installation methods are documented here; using either helm or manually applying manifests using kubectl. This documentation assumes that kubectl is available on a system configured with the desired Kubernetes context; and all examples use a Unix-like command line.

MySQL Operator for Kubernetes functions with Kubernetes 1.21 and newer.

Note

MySQL Operator for Kubernetes requires these three container images to function: MySQL Operator for Kubernetes, MySQL Router, and MySQL Server.
