-# Getting started with Netdata Cloud On-Prem
-Helm charts are designed for Kubernetes to run as the local equivalent of the Netdata Cloud public offering. This means that no data is sent outside of your cluster. By default, On-Prem installation is trying to reach outside resources only when pulling the container images.
-There are 2 helm charts in total:
-- netdata-cloud-onprem - installs onprem itself.
-- netdata-cloud-dependency - installs all necessary dependency applications. Not for production use, PoC only.
-
-## Requirements
-#### Install host:
-- [AWS CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html)
-- [Helm](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/) version 3.12+ with OCI Configuration (explained in the installation section)
-- [Kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/)
-
-#### Kubernetes requirements:
-- Kubernetes cluster version 1.23+
-- Kubernetes metrics server (For autoscaling)
-- TLS certificate for Netdata Cloud On-Prem. A single endpoint is required but there is an option to split the frontend, api, and mqtt endpoints. The certificate must be trusted by all entities connecting to the On-Prem installation by any means.
-- Ingress controller to support HTTPS `*`
-- PostgreSQL version 13.7 `*` (Main persistent data app)
-- EMQX version 5.11 `*` (MQTT Broker that allows Agents to send messages to the On-Prem Cloud)
-- Apache Pulsar version 2.10+ `*` (Central communication hub. Applications exchange messages through Pulsar)
-- Traefik version 2.7.x `*` (Internal communication - API Gateway)
-- Elasticsearch version 8.8.x `*` (Holds Feed)
-- Redis version 6.2 `*` (Cache)
-- Some form of generating imagePullSecret `*` (Our ECR repos are secured)
-- Default storage class configured and working (Persistent volumes based on SSDs are preferred)
-`*` - available in dependencies helm chart for PoC applications.
-
-#### Hardware requirements:
-##### How we tested it:
-- Several VMs on the AWS EC2, the size of the instance was c6a.32xlarge (128CPUs / 256GiB memory).
-- Host system - Ubuntu 22.04.
-- Each VM hosts 200 Agent nodes as docker containers.
-- Agents are connected directly to the Netdata Cloud On-Prem (no Parent-Child relationships). This is the worst option for the cloud.
-- Cloud hosted on 1 Kubernetes node c6a.8xlarge (32CPUs / 64GiB memory).
-- Dependencies were also installed on the same node.
-The maximum of nodes connected was ~2000.
-
-##### Results
-There was no point in trying to connect more nodes as we are covering the PoC purposes.
-- In a peak connection phase - All nodes startup were triggered in ~15 minutes:
-  - Up to 60% (20 cores) CPU usage of the Kubernetes node. Top usage came from:
-    - Ingress controller (we used haproxy ingress controller)
-    - Postgres
-    - Pulsar
-    - EMQX
-  Combined they were responsible for ~30-35% of CPU usage of the node.
-- When all nodes connected and synchronized their state CPU usage floated between 30% and 40% - depending on what we did on the Cloud. Here top offenders were:
-  - Pulsar
-  - Postgres
-  Combined they were responsible for ~15-20% of CPU usage of the node.
-- Memory usage - 45GiB in a peak. Most of it (~20GiB) was consumed by:
-  - Postgres
-  - Elasticsearch
-  - Pulsar
-
-For a comparison - Netdata Cloud On-prem installation with just 100 nodes connected, without dependencies is going to consume ~2CPUs and ~2GiB of memory (REAL usage, not requests on a Kubernetes).
-
-## Pulling the helm chart
-The helm chart for the Netdata Cloud On-Prem installation on Kubernetes is available in the ECR registry.
-The ECR registry is private, so you need to log in first. Credentials are sent by our Product Team. If you do not have them, please contact our Product Team - info@netdata.cloud.
-
-#### Configure AWS CLI
-The machine used for helm chart installation will also need [AWS CLI installed](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html).
-There are 2 options for configuring `aws cli` to work with the provided credentials. The first one is to set the environment variables:
-```bash
-export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your_secret_id>
-export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your_secret_key>
-```
-
-The second one is to use an interactive shell:
-```bash
-aws configure
-```
-
-#### Configure helm to use secured ECR repository
-Using `aws` command we will generate a token for helm to access the secured ECR repository:
-```bash
-aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1 | helm registry login --username AWS --password-stdin 362923047827.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/netdata-cloud-onprem
-```
-
-After this step you should be able to add the repository to your helm or just pull the helm chart:
-```bash
-helm pull oci://362923047827.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/netdata-cloud-dependency --untar #optional
-helm pull oci://362923047827.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/netdata-cloud-onprem --untar
-```
-
-Local folders with the newest versions of helm charts should appear on your working dir.
-
-## Installation
-
-Netdata provides access to two helm charts:
-1. netdata-cloud-dependency - required applications for netdata-cloud-onprem. Not for production use.
-2. netdata-cloud-onprem - the application itself + provisioning
-
-### netdata-cloud-dependency
-The entire helm chart is designed around the idea that it allows the installation of the necessary applications:
-- Redis
-- Elasticsearch
-- EMQX
-- Apache Pulsar
-- PostgreSQL
-- Traefik
-- Mailcatcher
-- k8s-ecr-login-renew
-- kubernetes-ingress
-
-Every configuration option is available through `values.yaml` in the folder that contains your netdata-cloud-dependency helm chart. All configuration options are described in README.md which is a part of the helm chart. It is enough to mention here that each component can be enabled/disabled individually. It is done by true/false switches in `values.yaml`. In this way, it is easier for the user to migrate to production-grade components gradually.
-
-Unless you prefer a different solution to the problem, `k8s-ecr-login-renew` is responsible for calling out the `AWS API` for token regeneration. This token is then injected into the secret that every node is using for authentication with secured ECR when pulling the images.
-The default setting in `values.yaml` of `netdata-cloud-onprem` - `.global.imagePullSecrets` is configured to work out of the box with the dependency helm chart.
-
-For helm chart installation - save your changes in `values.yaml` and execute:
-```shell
-cd [your helm chart location]
-helm upgrade --wait --install netdata-cloud-dependency -n netdata-cloud --create-namespace -f values.yaml .
-```
-
-### netdata-cloud-onprem
-
-Every configuration option is available through `values.yaml` in the folder that contains your netdata-cloud-onprem helm chart. All configuration options are described in README.md which is a part of the helm chart.
-
-#### Installing Netdata Cloud On-Prem
-```shell
-cd [your helm chart location]
-helm upgrade --wait --install netdata-cloud-onprem -n netdata-cloud --create-namespace -f values.yaml .
-```
-
-##### Important notes
-1. Installation takes care of provisioning the resources with migration services.
-1. During the first installation, a secret called the `netdata-cloud-common` is created. It contains several randomly generated entries. Deleting helm chart is not going to delete this secret, nor reinstalling the whole On-Prem, unless manually deleted by kubernetes administrator. The content of this secret is extremely relevant - strings that are contained there are essential parts of encryption. Losing or changing the data that it contains will result in data loss.
