Required tools for deploying Pulsar Helm Chart
Before deploying Pulsar to your Kubernetes cluster, there are some tools you must have installed locally.
kubectl
kubectl is the tool that talks to the Kubernetes API. kubectl 1.14 or higher is required and it needs to be compatible with your cluster (+/- 1 minor release from your cluster).
To Install kubectl locally, follow the Kubernetes documentation.
The server version of kubectl cannot be obtained until we connect to a cluster.
Helm
Helm is the package manager for Kubernetes. The Apache Pulsar Helm Chart is tested and supported with Helm v3.
Get Helm
You can get Helm from the project's releases page, or follow other options under the official documentation of installing Helm.
Next steps
Once kubectl and Helm are configured, you can configure your Kubernetes cluster.
