Deploy an Ops Manager Resource

You can deploy Ops Manager as a resource in a Kubernetes container using the Kubernetes Operator.

Select whether to encrypt your Ops Manager and application database connections with TLS.

The following considerations apply:

When you configure your Ops Manager deployment, you must choose whether to run connections over HTTPS or HTTP.

The following HTTPS procedure:

  • Establishes TLS-encrypted connections to/from the Ops Manager application.

  • Establishes TLS-encrypted connections between the application database's replica set members.

  • Requires valid certificates for TLS encryption.

The following HTTP procedure:

  • Doesn't encrypt connections to or from the Ops Manager application.

  • Doesn't encrypt connections between the application database's replica set members.

  • Has fewer setup requirements.

When running over HTTPS, Ops Manager runs on port 8443 by default.

This procedure applies to deploying an Ops Manager instance in a single Kubernetes cluster, and to deploying Ops Manager on an operator cluster in a multi-cluster deployment. If you want to deploy multiple instances of Ops Manager on multiple Kubernetes clusters, see Deploy Ops Manager Resources on Multiple Kubernetes Clusters.
