Introduction

RapidFort runs on Kubernetes and can be deployed via the RapidFort Helm Chart. It's important that GCP is properly configured with the correct permissions, network requirements, and underlying tooling before deploying RapidFort via the Helm Chart.

Main steps before deploying RapidFort are:

  1. Create a GCP Service Account with the correct permissions to a GCP Cloud Storage bucket
  2. Create a GCP Compute Engine VM that can be accessed over HTTPS and SSH
  3. Install the required tooling on the GCP Compute Engine VM
