Installation via SKE CLI

Syntasso Kratix Enterprise images are distributed through a private image registry. To install SKE on your Kubernetes cluster, follow the steps below.

Install

info

Syntasso Kratix Enterprise requires cert-manager to be installed on the cluster. Please refer to its documentation for installation instructions.

The easiest way to install SKE is using the SKE CLI. The CLI will install the SKE Operator and configure it to deploy SKE on your cluster. To install run:

ske install --access-token $SKE_LICENCE_TOKEN

Verify the installation

Once installation is complete you can verify what has been installed by running:

ske get version

You should see the following output (or similar):

Latest Available:
SKE Operator: v0.2.0; SKE Deployment: v0.3.0

Deployed:
SKE Operator: v0.2.0; SKE Deployment: v0.3.0

To verify that the Operator and SKE are healthy, run the following command:

kubectl get deployments.apps --namespace kratix-platform-system

You should see the following output:

NAME                                 READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
kratix-platform-controller-manager 1/1 1 1 1h
ske-operator-controller-manager 1/1 1 1 1h

You can now proceed with the configuration of Kratix (i.e. registering destinations or installing promises). For that, refer to the Open-Source Kratix documentation.
