Pigsty Deployment

It takes three steps to deploy Pigsty： Prepare, Configure, Playbook.

Preparation

Before installing Pigsty, you need to prepare the required resources: physical/VM nodes, admin users, and download Pigsty software.

• Node provisioning
• Meta node provisioning
• Admin provisioning
• Software provisioning

Configuration

After preparation, you need to indicate to Pigsty what infra and database services you need via configure.

• Configure Infra
• Configure Nodes
• Configure PGSQL Cluster / Customize PGSQL Cluster /Deploy PGSQL Cluster
• Configure Redis Cluster / Deploy Redis Cluster
• Deploy MatrixDB Cluster

Playbook Execution

The next step can be to land the requirements by executing the playbook.

• Install Pigsty on Meta / Pigsty Uninstall
• Add Nodes / Remove Nodes
• Deploy PGSQL Cluster / Offline PGSQL Cluster
• Create PGSQL Business User / Create PGSQL Business Database
• Deploy Redis Cluster / Offline Redis Cluster

Deployment

• Standard Deployment: Prepare brand new nodes to complete the standard Pigsty deployment process.
• Sandbox Deployment: Pull up a local VM sandbox environment with one click using a pre-built vagrant template.
• Multi-Cloud Deployment: Use terraform template to pull up the required VM resources at the cloud service vendor and perform the deployment.
• Monly Deployment: Use singleton Pigsty to monitor existing database clusters.
