Tools and Command Line Utilities
Prior to installing the Istari Digital Platform (and after completing the Infrastructure Prerequisites) the next steps are to install the Azure CLI, Kubectl, Helm, and then configure Azure access and Kubectl to use Azure Kubernetes Services.
- The Istari Digital Platform currently supports AWS and Azure as cloud providers.
- Support for other cloud providers is under development. The Istari Digital Platform will be available on other cloud providers in the future.
Installing Azure CLI, Kubectl, and Helm
Install Azure CLI
This is optional and only applicable if you plan to use an Azure Blob Storage container for file-like storage in the Istari Platform.
Consult Azure documentation for more information on installing the Azure CLI.
Install Kubectl
Consult Kubernetes documentation for more information on installing kubectl.
Install Helm
Consult helm installation for more information on installing helm.
Configure Azure Access
The Istari Digital platform only supports usage of Azure Blob Storage containers for the data plane or the object store used to store file-like entities.
Please refer to the Azure documentation on how to configure access.
Configure Kubectl to Use Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service
To interact with the AKS Cluster service in Azure, the kubectl CLI must be configured to connect to the Kubernetes cluster. Please consult the Azure documentation for more information.
