# Wavefront Prometheus Adapter packaged by Bitnami

Wavefront Storage Adapter is a Prometheus integration to transfer metrics from Prometheus to Wavefront. It lets you save Prometheus data in Wavefront without changing your existing Prometheus setup.

[Overview of Wavefront Prometheus Adapter](https://github.com/wavefrontHQ/prometheus-storage-adapter)


                           
## TL;DR

```console
$ helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
$ helm install my-release bitnami/wavefront-prometheus-storage-adapter
```

## Introduction

Bitnami charts for Helm are carefully engineered, actively maintained and are the quickest and easiest way to deploy containers on a Kubernetes cluster that are ready to handle production workloads.

Wavefront Prometheus Adapter  works as a "fork", such that data written to Prometheus is also written to Wavefront. It supports metrics path conversion and direct ingestion of metrics.

This chart bootstraps a [Wavefront Storage Adapter for Prometheus](https://github.com/wavefrontHQ/prometheus-storage-adapter) Deployment in a [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io) cluster using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.

Bitnami charts can be used with [Kubeapps](https://kubeapps.com/) for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters. This Helm chart has been tested on top of [Bitnami Kubernetes Production Runtime](https://kubeprod.io/) (BKPR). Deploy BKPR to get automated TLS certificates, logging and monitoring for your applications.

## Prerequisites

- Kubernetes 1.19+
- Helm 3.2.0+

## Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name `my-release`:

```console
$ helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
$ helm install my-release bitnami/wavefront-prometheus-storage-adapter
```

These commands deploy wavefront-prometheus-storage-adapter on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The [Parameters](#parameters) section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

> **Tip**: List all releases using `helm list`

## Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the `my-release` helm release:

```console
$ helm uninstall my-release
```

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Specify each parameter using the `--set key=value[,key=value]` argument to `helm install`. For example,

```console
$ helm install my-release \
  --set livenessProbe.successThreshold=5 \
    bitnami/wavefront-prometheus-storage-adapter
```

The above command sets the `livenessProbe.successThreshold` to `5`.

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

```bash
$ helm install my-release -f values.yaml bitnami/wavefront-prometheus-storage-adapter
```

## Configuration and installation details

### [Rolling VS Immutable tags](https://docs.bitnami.com/containers/how-to/understand-rolling-tags-containers/)

It is strongly recommended to use immutable tags in a production environment. This ensures your deployment does not change automatically if the same tag is updated with a different image.

Bitnami will release a new chart updating its containers if a new version of the main container, significant changes, or critical vulnerabilities exist.

### Connect to a Wavefront Proxy instance

The Wavefront Prometheus Storage Adapter chart needs to be connected to a Wavefront Proxy instance. This can be done in two different ways:

- Deploying the Wavefront subchart, using only the Wavefront Proxy component (default behavior): This is done by setting `wavefront.enabled=true` and `wavefront.proxy.enabled=true`, but leaving the `externalProxy.host` value unset. We recommend disabling the rest of the Wavefront sub-chart resources as they would not be used by the Prometheus Storage Adapter. You also need to configure the Wavefront SaaS URL and token using the `wavefont.wavefront.url` and `wavefront.wavefront.token` parameters.

- Using an external Wavefront Proxy instance: This is done by setting the `externalProxy.host` and `externalProxy.port` values. In this case, you should set the `wavefront.enabled` value to `false`. You also need to configure the Wavefront SaaS URL and token using the `wavefront.wavefront.url` and `wavefront.wavefront.token` parameters.

### Configure Prometheus

Once the Wavefront Prometheus Storage Adapter is deployed, you will need to configure the `prometheus.yml` file in your Prometheus installation adding the following lines (substitute the RELEASE_NAME placeholder):

```yaml
remote_write:
  - url: "http://RELEASE_NAME-wavefront-prometheus-storage-adapter:1234/receive"
```

## Upgrading

```bash
$ helm upgrade my-release bitnami/wavefront-prometheus-storage-adapter
```

### To 1.0.0

This major updates the Wavefront subchart to its newest major release, 3.0.0, which contains a new major version for kube-state-metrics. For more information on this subchart's major version, please refer to the [Wavefront upgrade notes](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/wavefront#to-300).
