This repository provides Helm charts for VictoriaMetrics, VictoriaLogs, and related tools. Helm charts are essentially installation packages that make it much easier to deploy software onto Kubernetes, which is a popular system for running applications across many servers. Instead of manually configuring dozens of settings to get VictoriaMetrics up and running, these packages automate that setup so you can get a monitoring system running with less effort. VictoriaMetrics is a tool for storing and searching large amounts of metrics data, the kind of numbers that track how fast your servers respond, how much memory they use, or how many users are currently active. VictoriaLogs does something similar but for logs, which are the text records applications produce as they run. Together, they help teams understand what is happening inside their infrastructure. Rather than building these from scratch, you can use these packages to deploy them as pre-configured units. The people who would use this are teams already running their applications on Kubernetes who need a way to collect and analyze performance data. For example, a startup whose app runs across several servers might want to know when response times slow down or when error rates spike. Rather than piecing together a monitoring setup manually, they can use these installation packages to get the same system that many other companies already rely on, configured with sensible defaults. The repository itself is written primarily in Go Template, which is the templating language used by Helm to generate configuration files. The README does not go into detail about specific features, setup steps, or tradeoffs, so anyone considering using these packages would need to look at the broader VictoriaMetrics documentation for guidance on what the tools can actually do. Overall, this project bridges the gap between VictoriaMetrics and the Kubernetes ecosystem, making it straightforward for teams to add monitoring and logging without becoming infrastructure experts.
Ready-to-use installation packages that deploy VictoriaMetrics and VictoriaLogs onto Kubernetes, giving teams monitoring and logging without manual configuration.
Mainly Go Template. The stack also includes Go Template, Helm, Kubernetes.
