Hey what are you using to deploy typsense to kubernetes ? Afaik there are two approaches: 1. https://github.com/typesense/typesense-kubernetes 2. https://github.com/sai3010/Typesense-Kubernetes-Operator I have been using number 2 which has required some work, But would love to hear it from someone who has used both ways and which one they prefer today and why 🙂

Cool tnx didn't know about it. The badge says it is in beta so maybe not production ready just yet
Which one would you recommend or would go with ?

Hi @Roland Kriibi, the maintainer of the https://github.com/akyriako/typesense-operator here, so my opinion is rather biased. Yes, the project is still in beta and under active development but soon will be in rc; I am dogfeeding myself in production currently. Give it a go, no disrespect to the other two projects and their maintainers but this operator solves raft-related situations that the other two are not tapping into. Take a look at the README and decide yourself if it fits your needs, and of course you are welcome to open issues in Github for support or feature requests.

Thanks for the honest feedback. Will give it a go at some point I am not running huge workloads or heavy traffic at the moment. But soon!
So one strange thing I have started to notice when using the https://github.com/sai3010/Typesense-Kubernetes-Operator is that when ever I deploy a new pod or a service the Typesense looses all of my data e.g index is not found anymore. Maybe I am doing something wrong or my cluster doesn't support a Volume Claim that it is needed for it. But if anyone has tips regarding this they are much welcomed.
