### Odoo 18 Docker Deployment on Kubernetes Setup and Usage #### Overview of Deploying Odoo with Docker on Kubernetes Deployments in Kubernetes manage the creation and updating of application instances within a cluster. For deploying an Odoo instance using Docker images, one can leverage Kubernetes' capabilities to ensure high availability, scalability, and ease of management[^1]. #### Preparing the Environment Before proceeding with the deployment, it is essential to have a running Kubernetes cluster along with `kubectl` configured properly. Additionally, having access to a container registry where custom or official Odoo Docker images are stored facilitates smoother deployments. #### Creating a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC) To persist data across pod restarts or deletions, creating a PVC ensures that database files remain intact. ```yaml apiVersion: v1 kind: PersistentVolumeClaim metadata: name: odoo-pvc spec: accessModes: - ReadWriteOnce resources: requests: storage: 10Gi ``` #### Defining the Deployment Configuration The following YAML snippet outlines how to define a Deployment resource for Odoo 18 utilizing Docker containers. ```yaml apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata: labels: app: odoo name: odoo-deployment spec: replicas: 2 selector: matchLabels: app: odoo template: metadata: labels: app: odoo spec: containers: - image: odoo:18 name: odoo ports: - containerPort: 8069 volumeMounts: - mountPath: /var/lib/odoo name: odoo-storage volumes: - name: odoo-storage persistentVolumeClaim: claimName: odoo-pvc ``` #### Setting Up Service Accessibility For external accessibility, setting up services allows traffic routing from outside into the pods managed by this Deployment. ```yaml apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata: name: odoo-service spec: type: LoadBalancer ports: - port: 80 targetPort: 8069 selector: app: odoo ``` #### Applying Configurations via kubectl After preparing all necessary configuration files, applying these configurations through `kubectl apply -f <filename>.yaml` commands will initiate the process of launching and managing the Odoo environment on Kubernetes. --related questions-- 1.
