Airbyte

Hi All, I am looking for anyone who has used an external db for their Airbyte deployment on K8s this is possible but airbyte has not updated there documentation to explain how

Did you check this docs? <https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/configuring-airbyte-db>

<@U02TQLBLDU4> this details it within docker and only postgresDB  we need documentation for on GKE cluster/k8s

<https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/on-kubernetes#using-an-external-db>  - this is where the documentation should be. It says once the linked issue is resolved you would update the docs. the linked issue is done but still no docs….

Are yo deploying using kustomize or helm?

we havent decided yet im just asking if the documentation can be updated on the second link like it says it will when the related incident is closed.

Hello <@U033A0QFPHB> the deployment in kubernetes is beta today; you can use the default method or try to improve it using the external database. The request for documentation was added to the team roadmap and will be done in the future you can wait for that or try to explore yourself :slightly_smiling_face:
