KUOKA Yusukeandk8s-ci-robot 71fc6122bd [stable/apm-server] Elastic APM Server (#6058)
[Elastic APM](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/get-started/current/overview.html) is an application performance monitoring system built on the Elastic Stack. This chart is to install the server part of the system.

See the official documentation to setup the agent part of the system.

Even though apm-server is built by the Elastic team, it supports alternative outputs other than Elasticsearch via built-in beat output plugins and community plugins. For example, [awsbeats](https://github.com/s12v/awsbeats) enables apm-server to write collected application traces to AWS Kinesis Streams.

Other changelog:

- Include the commented-out elasticsearch output too support common use-cases
- Include the configuraion table in the README

apm-server

apm-server is the server receives data from the Elastic APM agents and stores the data into a datastore like Elasticsearch.

Introduction

This chart deploys apm-server agents to all the nodes in your cluster via a DaemonSet.

By default this chart only ships a single output to a file on the local system. Users should set config.output.file.enabled=false and configure their own outputs as documented

Prerequisites

  • Kubernetes 1.9+

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release, run:

$ helm install --name my-release stable/apm-server

After a few minutes, you should see service statuses being written to the configured output, which is a log file inside the apm-server container.

Tip

: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

$ helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Configuration

The following table lists the configurable parameters of the apm-server chart and their default values.

Parameter Description Default
image.repository The image repository to pull from docker.elastic.co/apm/apm-server
image.tag The image tag to pull 6.2.4
image.pullPolicy Image pull policy IfNotPresent
rbac.create If true, create & use RBAC resources true
rbac.serviceAccount existing ServiceAccount to use (ignored if rbac.create=true) default
config The content of the configuration file consumed by apm-server. See the apm-server documentation for full details
plugins List of beat plugins
extraVars A map of additional environment variables
extraVolumes, extraVolumeMounts Additional volumes and mounts, for example to provide other configuration files
resources.requests.cpu CPU resource requests
resources.limits.cpu CPU resource limits
resources.requests.memory Memory resource requests
resources.limits.memory Memory resource limits

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install. For example,

$ helm install --name my-release \
    --set rbac.create=true \
    stable/apm-server

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

$ helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml stable/apm-server

Tip

: You can use the default values.yaml
