Hi team, company is trying to evaluate Airbyte in OpenShift Platform which is the best and most stable community edition which works along with the V1 helm chart ? Any advice before we jump in

For deploying Airbyte Community Edition on OpenShift using the V1 Helm chart, the most stable and recommended combination is: - Airbyte version 1.8.5 with Helm chart V1 (version 1.8.5) This combination is reported to work well and is considered stable by the community. Users have specifically mentioned that Airbyte 1.8.5 with Helm chart V1 works "fantastic" on Kubernetes platforms, and there are no major issues reported for this setup on OpenShift. You can install it using:

bash helm install airbyte airbyte/airbyte --namespace airbyte --version 1.8.5

Important advice before you start: - OpenShift-specific requirements: Airbyte supports OpenShift as of version 1.3. You must run the Helm deployment as a

cluster-admin

user. Your OpenShift namespace should have the following annotations to ensure all Airbyte resources run as UID 1000 and GID 1000:

<http://openshift.io/sa.scc.supplemental-groups|openshift.io/sa.scc.supplemental-groups>: 1000/1   <http://openshift.io/sa.scc.uid-range|openshift.io/sa.scc.uid-range>: 1000/1

[See release notes for details](https://docs.airbyte.com/release_notes/v-1.3) and [OpenShift support announcement](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/55844). - Helm chart V1 support ends with Airbyte 2.0: Airbyte 2.0 is the last version to support Helm chart V1. If you plan to upgrade in the future, you will need to migrate to Helm chart V2, as versions 2.1 and later only support Helm chart V2. For now, sticking with 1.8.5 and Helm chart V1 is a safe choice for evaluation and initial deployment, especially on OpenShift [Release notes v2.0](https://docs.airbyte.com/release_notes/v-2.0#final-version-with-helm-chart-v1-support). - Documentation and community feedback: The V1 Helm chart is community-supported and has seen many improvements. If you encounter issues, check the [Airbyte GitHub issues](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues) and [community forums](https://discuss.airbyte.io/) for troubleshooting and advice. Summary: For OpenShift, use Airbyte 1.8.5 with Helm chart V1 (version 1.8.5) for the most stable community experience. Be sure to apply the required OpenShift namespace annotations and plan for a future migration to Helm chart V2 if you intend to upgrade Airbyte beyond version 2.0. If you need more details on the deployment process or run into any edge cases, feel free to ask!

Does it work without admin privileges as well?
