\n\n# Kibana Advanced Helm Chart\n\nKibana is an open source, browser based analytics and search dashboard for Elasticsearch. The Kibana Advanced Helm chart automates deployment and configuration of Kibana in Kubernetes clusters using Minimus images with **hardened security** and **production-grade configuration**.\n\n\n## {{icon-list-search}} Prerequisites\n\n- A subscription to the Minimus images included in the chart\n- A running Kubernetes cluster (v1.21 or higher is recommended)\n- `kubectl` installed and configured\n- Helm v3.8 or higher for OCI support ([Installation instructions](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/))\n- Cluster Admin privileges\n- An Elasticsearch cluster accessible from the Kubernetes cluster\n- Persistent storage available in your cluster\n\n\n

\n\n## {{icon-rocket}}Try It Out\n\nIn this example we will deploy Kibana on a Kubernetes cluster using the Minimus Kibana Advanced Helm chart. Kibana will be configured with hardened security settings and ready to connect to your Elasticsearch cluster.\n\n

\n\n### Step 1: Start Cluster\n\n

\n\nIf you have a cluster to work with, skip this step. Otherwise, start a Minikube cluster. [Deployment instructions](https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/?arch=%2Flinux%2Fx86-64%2Fstable%2Fbinary+download)\n\n

\n\n### Step 2: Create Namespace\n\n

\n\nCreate a namespace:\n\n```\nkubectl create ns kibana-advanced\n```\n\n{{if-enterprise}}\n\nNext, create a Kubernetes secret for the Minimus token:\n\n```\nkubectl create secret docker-registry minimus-registry \\\n --docker-server=reg.mini.dev \\\n --docker-username=minimus \\\n --docker-password={{pull-token}} \\\n --namespace=kibana-advanced\n```\n\n{{/if-enterprise}}\n\n

\n\n### Step 3: Deploy the Helm Chart\n\n

\n\nDeploy the Minimus Helm chart:\n\n```\nhelm install my-kibana-advanced {{oci-url}} \\\n --version {{chart-version}} \\\n -n kibana-advanced \\\n --wait\n```\n\nIf you want to override the chart's defaults, go to the Values tab, save a copy locally with your changes. Deploy the chart with your overrides using `-f values.yaml`:\n\n```\nhelm install my-kibana-advanced {{oci-url}} \\\n --version {{chart-version}} \\\n -f values.yaml \\\n -n kibana-advanced \\\n --wait\n```\n\n

\n\n### Step 4: Verify Kibana Advanced is Running\n\n

\n\nTo check that the pod was successfully created run:\n\n```\nkubectl get pods -n kibana-advanced -l app.kubernetes.io/name=kibana\n```\n\nYou should see output similar to:\n\n```\nNAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE\nmy-kibana-advanced-kibana-0 1/1 Running 0 2m\n```\n\n

\n\n### Step 5: Test HTTP Endpoint\n\n

\n\nConnect to Kibana using port-forward:\n\n```\nkubectl port-forward svc/my-kibana-advanced-kibana 5601:5601 -n kibana-advanced\n```\n\nIn another terminal, verify the HTTP endpoint is responding:\n\n```\ncurl -sf http://localhost:5601\n```\n\nYou should receive a response from Kibana. If you see the Kibana interface or a redirect, the deployment is fully operational.\n\n

\n\n### Step 6: Clean Up\n\n

\n\nUninstall the chart and delete the namespace to remove all resources:\n\n```\nhelm uninstall my-kibana-advanced -n kibana-advanced\nkubectl delete namespace kibana-advanced\n```\n\n
