3/28/2023 0 Comments Bitnami trac stack![]() ![]() Regarding the long term plan, our roadmap is to use OCI packages as the only source of truth, removing the index.yaml stored at. From that moment, we will consider Bitnami OCI Helm Charts as the production-grade method for distributing and consuming Helm Charts. The OCI Helm Charts available at the bitnamicharts DockerHub organization will be fully included in our automated release process. The bitnamicharts DockerHub organization will be part of the Docker Verified Publisher Program. See below what our plan in the short term is in relation to this new way of distributing Helm Charts: We would like to get your feedback before proceeding to fully migrate to OCI.īecause of that, the update cadence is different from the one followed to update the index.yaml stored at, being the index.yaml the official and most updated method for distributing Helm Charts. Why for Early Adopters?Īs of now, Helm Charts are pushed to the OCI registry as an experimental catalog independent of our 'official' Helm Charts. These Helm charts are 100% OCI-compliant, which means subcharts are also fetched from DockerHub in OCI format. Helm install my-release oci:///bitnamicharts/postgresql You can find them in the bitnamicharts DockerHub organization and deploying any Helm chart should be as simple as running the following command, for instance in the case of the bitnami/postgresql Helm Chart: ![]() We are happy to announce that from this moment, the whole Bitnami Helm Charts catalog is available as OCI packages for Early Adopters ! □□ This means users don’t need to specify anything when pulling the container images from Docker Hub, Docker (or any other software) will automatically pull the container image matching the host platform from which the pull command was issued. We will keep working, as usual, thinking about end users' needs and, for sure, being vigilant to ensure the quality of our products become better.įrom a technical point of view, the Bitnami container images are built as multi-arch images: Hyperscalers in 2022 provided their customers ARM architecture support ( Google Cloud, AWS, and Azure ) and there is also a great article written by Percona’s team doing an economical comparison of using different EC2 types in AWS, in the end, we can see how in terms of costs, Graviton (EC2 with ARM support) is a good choice in terms of pricing vs performance for database usage.įrom VMware’s Bitnami team, we are happy to face this challenge and keep our aim committed to our users’ needs. So, after analyzing the needed efforts and seeing how important this feature was for our end users, we proceed to implement this. More than a year and a half ago (mid 2021), Bitnami users started requesting us to provide support for ARM because Apple started with their M1 and also in the Hyperscalers the ARM adoption was planned to be done. On the other hand, the team did its best to support the current catalog but in some cases, for example MongoDB, wasn’t able because there are no ARM binaries available for Debian 11. Our Catalog has more than 200 million monthly pulls of our containers just from Docker Hub (and growing), so we had to do this effort thinking about our users. □□ Bitnami containers have support for ARM and they are available at Docker Hub ! □□ VMware’s Bitnami team has achieved another big step in moving further its commitment to the development ecosystem: ![]()
