# Memcached
> [Memcached](https://memcached.org/) is an in-memory key-value store for small chunks of arbitrary data (strings, objects) from results of database calls, API calls, or page rendering.
## TL;DR;
```console
$ helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
$ helm install my-release bitnami/memcached
```
## Introduction
This chart bootstraps a [Memcached](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-memcached) deployment on a [Kubernetes](http://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 1.12+
- Helm 2.11+ or Helm 3.0-beta3+
## 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/memcached
```
These commands deploy Memcached 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` deployment:
```console
$ helm delete my-release
```
The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.
## Parameters
The following tables lists the configurable parameters of the Memcached chart and their default values.

| `persistence.accessMode` | PVC Access Mode for Jenkins volume | `ReadWriteOnce` |
| `persistence.size` | PVC Storage Request for Jenkins volume | `8Gi` |
| `securityContext.enabled` | Enable security context | `true` |
| `securityContext.fsGroup` | Group ID for the container | `1001` |
| `securityContext.runAsUser` | User ID for the container | `1001` |
| `securityContext.readOnlyRootFilesystem` | Enable read-only filesystem | `false` |
| `podAnnotations` | Pod annotations | `{}` |
| `affinity` | Map of node/pod affinities | `{}` (The value is evaluated as a template) |
| `nodeSelector` | Node labels for pod assignment | `{}` (The value is evaluated as a template) |
| `tolerations` | Tolerations for pod assignment | `[]` (The value is evaluated as a template) |
| `metrics.enabled` | Start a side-car prometheus exporter | `false` |
| `metrics.image.registry` | Memcached exporter image registry | `docker.io` |
| `metrics.image.repository` | Memcached exporter image name | `bitnami/memcached-exporter` |
| `metrics.image.tag` | Memcached exporter image tag | `{TAG_NAME}` |
| `metrics.image.pullPolicy` | Image pull policy | `IfNotPresent` |
| `metrics.image.pullSecrets` | Specify docker-registry secret names as an array | `[]` (does not add image pull secrets to deployed pods) |
| `metrics.podAnnotations` | Additional annotations for Metrics exporter | `{prometheus.io/scrape: "true", prometheus.io/port: "9150"}` |
| `metrics.resources` | Exporter resource requests/limit | `{}` |
| `metrics.service.type` | Kubernetes service type for Prometheus metrics | `ClusterIP` |
| `metrics.service.port` | Prometheus metrics service port | `9150` |
| `metrics.service.annotations` | Prometheus exporter svc annotations | `{prometheus.io/scrape: "true", prometheus.io/port: "9150"}` |
The above parameters map to the env variables defined in [bitnami/memcached](http://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-memcached). For more information please refer to the [bitnami/memcached](http://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-memcached) image documentation.
Specify each parameter using the `--set key=value[,key=value]` argument to `helm install`. For example,
```console
$ helm install my-release --set memcachedUsername=user,memcachedPassword=password bitnami/memcached
```
The above command sets the Memcached admin account username and password to `user` and `password` respectively.
Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,
```console
$ helm install my-release -f values.yaml bitnami/memcached
```
> **Tip**: You can use the default [values.yaml](values.yaml)
## 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.
### Production configuration
This chart includes a `values-production.yaml` file where you can find some parameters oriented to production configuration in comparison to the regular `values.yaml`. You can use this file instead of the default one.
- Start a side-car prometheus exporter:
```diff
- metrics.enabled: false
+ metrics.enabled: true
```
- Enable read-only filesystem:
```diff
- securityContext.readOnlyRootFilesystem=false
+ securityContext.readOnlyRootFilesystem=true
```
## Persistence
The [Bitnami Memcached](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-memcached) image stores the cache-state at the `/cache-state` path of the container if enabled.
Persistent Volume Claims are used to keep the data across deployments. This is known to work in GCE, AWS, and minikube.
See the [Parameters](#parameters) section to configure the PVC or to disable persistence.
## Notable changes
### 4.0.0
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's deployments.
Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 4.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is memcached:
```console
$ kubectl delete deployment memcached --cascade=false
$ helm upgrade memcached bitnami/memcached
```
### 3.0.0
This release uses the new bash based `bitnami/memcached` container which uses bash scripts for the start up logic of the container and is smaller in size.
## Upgrading
### To 1.0.0
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's deployments.
Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 1.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is memcached:
```console
$ kubectl patch deployment memcached --type=json -p='[{"op": "remove", "path": "/spec/selector/matchLabels/chart"}]'
```
