Alfresco provides tested Helm charts as a “deployment template” for customers who want to take advantage of the container orchestration benefits of Kubernetes. These Helm charts are undergoing continual development and improvement, and shouldn’t be used “as is” for your production environments, but should help you save time and effort deploying Content Services for your organization.
The Helm charts in this repository provide a PostgreSQL database in a Docker container and don’t configure any logging. This design was chosen so that you can install them in a Kubernetes cluster without changes, and they’re flexible enough for adopting to your actual environment.
You should use these charts in your environment only as a starting point, and modify them so that Content Services integrates into your infrastructure. You typically want to remove the PostgreSQL container, and connect the cs-repository directly to your database (this might require custom images to get the required JDBC driver in the container).
Another typical change is the integration of your company-wide monitoring and logging tools.
