This chapter demonstrates how to deploy Oracle Unified Directory (OUD) 14c instance(s) and replicated instances using the Helm package manager for Kubernetes. The helm chart can be used to deploy an Oracle Unified Directory instance as a base, with configured sample entries, and multiple replicated Oracle Unified Directory instances, pods, and services, based on the specified replicaCount. Based on the configuration, this chart deploys the following objects in the specified namespace of a Kubernetes cluster:

• Service Account
• Secret
• Persistent Volume and Persistent Volume Claim
• Pod(s)/Container(s) for Oracle Unified Directory Instances
• Services for interfaces exposed through Oracle Unified Directory Instances
• Ingress configuration

This chapter contains the following topics:

• Creating a Kubernetes Namespace
• Creating a Kubernetes Secret for the Container Registry
• Create a Kubernetes Secret for Cronjob Images
• Creating Oracle Unified Directory Instances
