| Hi Kuschku, Sorry for the confusion, as noted we are trying to remedy this with a single chart as quickly as possible. Currently we have two Helm charts that can deploy GitLab, "gitlab" and "gitlab-omnibus". * The "gitlab" chart deploys only GitLab itself and is not recommended. This is the chart that has been announced as deprecated in the blog post. * The "gitlab-omnibus" chart is what we recommend users to install today, and deploys everything you need for a working GitLab installation. (Postgres, Redis, an Ingress, etc.) We still support and maintain the "gitlab-omnibus" chart, but it too will eventually be deprecated as well in favor of the upcoming cloud native charts. The cloud native charts will have a significant number of advantages, including: * Separation of components for improved horizontal scaling * Improved resilience * Faster startup time (current container runs `gitlab-ctl reconfigure` on every startup) * No need for root access Due to the significant architectural changes, migration will be via backup/restore. |
Oh my god, how much I'd love that.
On the topic of cloud native charts, can I use the new cloud native gitlab chart (if I run an external prometheus, postgres and redis already separately) today? And how would I migrate?
And one thing I'd love to see is building docker containers without having to give the runner access to the host's docker. How do other CI solutions do that?
