Deploy with Helm

Use Helm to deploy Image-Based Video Search to a Kubernetes cluster. This guide will help you:

  • Add the Helm chart repository.
  • Configure the Helm chart to match your deployment needs.
  • Deploy and verify the application.

Helm simplifies Kubernetes deployments by streamlining configurations and enabling easy scaling and updates. For more details, see Helm Documentation.

Prerequisites

Before You Begin, ensure the following:

  • System Requirements: Verify that your system meets the minimum requirements.
  • Tools Installed: Install the required tools:
    • Kubernetes CLI (kubectl)
    • Helm 3 or later

Steps to Deploy

helm upgrade \
    --install ibvs oci://registry-1.docker.io/intel/image-based-video-search \
    --create-namespace \
    -n ibvs

Some containers in the deployment requires network access. If you are in a proxy environment, pass the proxy environment variables as follows:

# Install the Image-Based Video Search chart in the ibvs namespace
# Replace the proxy values with the specific ones for your environment:
helm upgrade \
    --install ibvs oci://registry-1.docker.io/intel/image-based-video-search \
    --create-namespace \
    --set httpProxy="http://proxy.example.com:8080" \
    --set httpsProxy="http://proxy.example.com:8080" \
    --set noProxy="localhost\,127.0.0.1" \
    -n ibvs

To get the port where the application is serving, run the following command:

kubectl -n ibvs get svc/ibvs-app

This is an example output of the previous command:

NAME       TYPE       CLUSTER-IP      EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)          AGE
ibvs-app   NodePort   10.109.118.49   <none>        3000:31998/TCP   14m

Now frontend should be accessible at http://localhost:31998/.

Finally, the app can be uninstalled using the following command:

# And this is how you uninstall the chart:
helm uninstall -n ibvs ibvs

Troubleshooting

  1. Helm Chart Not Found:

    • Check if the Helm repository was added:

      helm repo list

  2. Pods Not Running:

    • Review pod logs:

      kubectl logs {{pod-name}} -n {{namespace}}

  3. Service Unreachable:

    • Confirm the service configuration:

      kubectl get svc -n {{namespace}}
