Deploying TIBCO OI Hawk RedTail Components in a Kubernetes Cluster

Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts, providing basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications. The administrator must be familiar with Kubernetes concepts before deploying TIBCO OI Hawk RedTail. For more information about Kubernetes, see the Kubernetes documentation.

Procedure

1. Set up a Kubernetes cluster.
For more information, see Kubernetes Documentation.
2. Create a repository with the same name as the Docker image of TIBCO OI Hawk RedTail components. Upload the component images to the repository.
Note: You might need to tag the images differently based on the cloud platform registry requirements.
3. Deploy the manifest files for each of the TIBCO OI Hawk RedTail components and deploy using standard Kubernetes deployment procedures. Refer to the sample Kubernetes YAML files for each of the TIBCO OI Hawk RedTail components at OIHR_HOME/redtail/samples/kubernetes/.
4. After successful deployment of TIBCO OI Hawk RedTail components on Kubernetes, access the Webapp URL using https://<webapp_IP>:<webapp_port>/redtail.
