We provide a few approaches to deploy KEDA runtime in your Kubernetes clusters:

• Helm charts
• Operator Hub
• YAML declarations

Deploying with Helm

Install

Deploying KEDA with Helm is very simple:

1. Add Helm repo

   helm repo add kedacore https://kedacore.github.io/charts
   

2. Update Helm repo

   helm repo update
   

3. Install keda Helm chart

   Helm 2

   helm install keda kedacore/keda  --version 1.4.2 --namespace keda --create-namespace
   

   Helm 3

   kubectl create namespace keda
   helm install keda kedacore/keda --version 1.4.2 --namespace keda
   

Uninstall

If you want to remove KEDA from a cluster you can run one of the following:

Using Helm 3

helm uninstall -n keda keda
kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kedacore/keda/v1.4.0/deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_scaledobjects_crd.yaml
kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kedacore/keda/v1.4.0/deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_triggerauthentications_crd.yaml

Using Helm 2

helm delete --purge keda
kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kedacore/keda/v1.4.0/deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_scaledobjects_crd.yaml
kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kedacore/keda/v1.4.0/deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_triggerauthentications_crd.yaml

Deploying with Operator Hub

Install

1. On Operator Hub Marketplace locate and install KEDA operator
2. Create namespace keda
3. Create KedaController resource named keda in namespace keda

   

   

💡 **NOTE:**Further information on Operator Hub installation method can be found in the following repository.

Uninstall

Locate installed KEDA Operator in keda namespace, then remove created KedaController resource and uninstall KEDA operator.

Deploying using the deployment YAML files

Install

If you want to try KEDA on Minikube or a different Kubernetes deployment without using Helm you can still deploy it with kubectl.

We provide sample YAML declarations which includes our CRD in the released zip and tar.gz package files which are available on the GitHub releases page. Download the zip or tar.gz file, unpack it, enter the unpacked folder and just run the following commands.

kubectl apply -f ./crds
kubectl apply -f ./

You can also find the same YAML declarations in our /deploy directory on our GitHub repo if you prefer to clone it.

git clone https://github.com/kedacore/keda && cd keda && git checkout tags/v1.4.1

kubectl apply -f deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_scaledobjects_crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_triggerauthentications_crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/

Uninstall

You would need to run these commands from within the directory of the cloned GitHub repo:

kubectl delete -f deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_scaledobjects_crd.yaml
kubectl delete -f deploy/crds/keda.k8s.io_triggerauthentications_crd.yaml
kubectl delete -f deploy/
