Kubernetes native BigData platform with S3 There is a wide range of tools which allows the analysis of BigData, like Hadoop or other NoSQL databases like MongoDB. All have in common that they are providing functionality for preparing (enrichment, analysing) and persisting data for exploration and visualization.

Setup S3-Bucket Create a local Helm Repo Package all of your Helm projects locally Indexing of the Helm repository locally Deploy the Helm packages Add your Repo (This table of content was done with Markdownmenu) I want to show how you can use an ordinary S3-Bucket of AWS as a qualified Helm Repository. This is a cheap alternative and is completely serverless. This Helm Repo is not a fully functional Helm Repository like the Chartmuseum.
