Try It Out
Step 1: Start Cluster
If you have a cluster to work with, skip this step. Otherwise, start a Minikube cluster. Deployment instructions
Step 2: Create Namespace
Create a namespace:
kubectl create ns elastic
Step 3: Save Values File Locally
Go to the Values tab and save a copy of the it locally. You will need to add the flag -f values.yaml to override the defaults when you deploy the chart in the next step.
Step 4: Deploy ECK Stack
Deploy the Helm chart with the default values.yaml provided by Minimus. This chart deploys CRDs like Elasticsearch, Kibana, ApmServer, etc. that are managed by the ECK operator, not raw pods:
helm install eck-stack oci://helm.mini.dev/eck-stack \
--version 0.18.0 \
-f values.yaml \
-n elastic
Step 5: Check the Resources
After installation, verify your ECK-managed resources:
kubectl get elasticsearch,kibana,apmserver -n elastic
Step 6: Monitor Pod Status
Run the following and wait for the pods to show that their status is running.
kubectl get pods -n elastic -w
Step 7: Access Credentials
Retrieve the default elastic user password:
kubectl get secret eck-stack-es-elastic-user -n elastic -o go-template='{{.data.elastic | base64decode}}'
Step 8: Port Forward Kibana
kubectl port-forward service/eck-stack-kb-http 5601 -n elastic
Then open http://localhost:5601 in your browser and log in using:
- Username: elastic
- Password: {from previous step}
