Deploying PingIntelligence in Kubernetes cluster
Before you begin
Make sure you have a valid PingIntelligence license.
About this task
The Helm-Chart to deploy PingIntelligence in Kubernetes is shipped inside the Docker toolkit.
To deploy PingIntelligence in a Kubernetes cluster:
Steps
-
Download the PingIntelligence Docker toolkit from the PingIntelligence software download site.
-
Untar the Docker toolkit by running the following command:
tar -zxf <PingIntelligence Docker toolkit>
Directory structure:
pingidentity/ |-- docker-toolkit `-- helm-chart
Directory structure for Helm-Chart:
helm-chart/ `-- pi4api |-- Chart.yaml |-- templates | |-- abs_deployment.yaml | |-- abs_external_service.yaml | |-- abs_internal_service.yaml | |-- apipublish_deployment.yaml | |-- apipublish_external_service.yaml | |-- apipublish_internal_service.yaml | |-- ase_deployment.yaml | |-- ase_external_service.yaml | |-- ase_internal_service.yaml | |-- dashboard_deployment.yaml | |-- dashboard_external_service.yaml | |-- _helpers.tpl | |-- kafka_deployment.yaml | |-- kafka_external_service.yaml | |-- kafka_internal_service.yaml | |-- license_configmap.yaml | |-- mongo_deployment.yaml | |-- mongo_external_service.yaml | |-- mongo_internal_service.yaml | |-- namespace.yaml | |-- service_account.yaml | |-- zookeeper_deployment.yaml | |-- zookeeper_external_service.yaml | `-- zookeeper_internal_service.yaml |-- values.yaml `-- version.txt

PingIntelligence configuration example file
-
Build the PingIntelligence Docker images by completing the steps in Building the PingIntelligence Docker images.
-
Create a custom
values.yaml
file with all the configurations for PingIntelligence.The
values.yaml
packed with Helm-Chart is for example purposes and with default values. Override the values in a customvalues.yaml
, or change the values in the default.yaml
. -
Provide the license for PingIntelligence in
values.yaml
.The system prompts you for the following information from the license file:
#License required for ABS and ASE license : | ID= Organization= Product= Version= IssueDate= EnforcementType= ExpirationDate= MaxTransactionsPerMonth= Tier= SignCode= Signature=
-
Install PingIntelligence Helm-Chart.
Helm-Chart creates Kubernetes secrets to store data of the released version in the namespace. The user can decide where to store them, in the default namespace in which PingIntelligence is being deployed.
Choose from:
-
Create the namespace through Helm-Chart:
-
Set
create_namespace
totrue
invalues.yaml
. -
Install by running the following command:
helm install -f values.yaml pi4api ~/pingidentity/helm-chart/pi4api
This creates the namespace at deployment time, and the Helm-Chart release secret is stored in the default namespace.
-
-
Create the namespace before installation:
-
Create a namespace:
kubectl create namespace pingidentity
-
Install by running the following command:
helm install -f values.yaml pi4api ~/pingidentity/helm-chart/pi4api
In this case, Helm-Chart creates a release secret that is stored in the namespace where PingIntelligence gets deployed.
-
Currently, PingIntelligence supports only image and license upgrades in Helm-Chart:
helm upgrade -f values.yaml pi4api ~/pingidentity/helm-chart/pi4api -n <namespace>
-
Currently, PingIntelligence Helm-Chart supports a single node Kafka, Zookeeper, API Publish, and Mongo installation.

Next steps
Verify that the deployment is successful by entering the following command:
kubectl get pods -n pingidentity
Below is an example of what you should see:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE abs-0 1/1 Running 0 3d apipublish-0 1/1 Running 1 3d ase-0 1/1 Running 0 3d dashboard-0 1/1 Running 0 3d kafka-0 1/1 Running 0 3d mongo-0 1/1 Running 0 3d zookeeper-0 1/1 Running 0 3d
Fetch the IP addresses of ASE, ABS, and Dashboard by entering the following command:
kubectl get svc -n pingidentity
Below is an example of what you should see:
