Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.7 is installed as the operating system on three bare metal compute-only nodes. Then upstream Kubernetes 1.26 is installed with one master and two worker nodes. After this, the CSI driver 2.6.0 is installed to expose the PowerFlex volumes to the Kubernetes pods, followed by an ECK deployment with three master and five data nodes.
Note: Elastic stack is flexible and may be installed in various ways; however, the above configuration is specific to this whitepaper.
