In this guide, we will deploy Merlin on a local K3d cluster.
- Kubernetes
- In this guide, we will use k3d with LoadBalancer enabled
- Kubernetes CLI (kubectl)
- Helm
First, you need to have k3d installed on your machine. To install it, please follow this documentation.
Next, create a new k3d cluster:
export CLUSTER_NAME=merlin-cluster
export K3S_VERSION=v1.26.7-k3s1
k3d cluster create $CLUSTER_NAME --image rancher/k3s:$K3S_VERSION --k3s-arg '--disable=traefik,metrics-server@server:*' --port 80:80@loadbalancer
You can run quick_install.sh
to install Merlin and it's components:
# From Merlin root directory, run:
./scripts/quick_install.sh
kubectl get po -n caraml
NAMESPACE NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
caraml merlin-7bd99fd784-kb4ls 2/2 Running 0 10m
caraml merlin-7bd99fd784-pwcwz 2/2 Running 0 10m
caraml merlin-merlin-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 10m

caraml merlin-mlp-688667fcdb-lpq52 1/1 Running 0 10m
caraml merlin-mlp-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 10m
Once everything is Running, you can open Merlin in http://merlin.mlp.${INGRESS_HOST}.nip.io/merlin. From here, you can run Jupyter notebook examples by setting merlin.set_url("merlin.mlp.${INGRESS_HOST}.nip.io")
