Installation overview

Your entry point to deploy the Data Center Edition (DCE) on Kubernetes or OpenShift.

As a DCE subscriber, Sonar will assist with the setup and configuration of your cluster. Get in touch with your account manager to receive appropriate onboarding resources.

This section explains how to install Data Center Edition on Kubernetes or OpenShift (see also the SonarQube Server Helm chart documentation).

To deploy Data Center Edition on Kubernetes or OpenShift:

1. Read Before you start.

2. Customize the Helm chart and install it in Kubernetes. See:

   1. Customizing the Helm chart

   2. Installing the DCE Helm chart

   Alternatively, if you want to deploy from the Google Cloud Platform, see Installing from Google Cloud Platform.

3. Once your SonarQube Server is installed and running, you can access SonarQube Server UI in your web browser (the default system administrator credentials are admin/admin) and you’re ready to begin Project analysis setup.

4. If you have customized your Helm chart, you can now encrypt sensitive data in your values.yaml file. See Encrypting sensitive data.
