Charmed Kubeflow (CKF) can be installed on any CNCF certified Kubernetes, including AKS, EKS, GKE, Openshift and any kubeadm-deployed cluster.
Contents:
- Prerequisites
- Bootstrap Juju
- Create a model called
kubeflow - Deploy the
kubeflowbundle - Access the Kubeflow dashboard
Prerequisites
It is assumed you have a Kubernetes cluster running. The cluster must meet these requirements:
- be version 1.22, 1.23, or 1.24
- have a (default) storage class configured
- have dns configured
- for accessing the dashboard, have a LoadBalancer and Ingress
Bootstrap Juju
Charmed Kubeflow is deployed to Kubernetes (K8s) with Juju. Before deployment, Juju must first be bootstrapped to the K8s cluster. For bootstrapping instructions, see Juju OLM | Get started wtih the Juju OLM.
Create a model called kubeflow
To create a Juju model for Charmed Kubeflow, run:
juju add-model kubeflow
The model name must be kubeflow for deploying Charmed Kubeflow.
See more: Juju OLM |
juju add-model
To view the newly created model, run:
juju models

juju models
Deploy the kubeflow bundle
To deploy the most recent stable version of Charmed Kubeflow:
juju deploy kubeflow --trust
See more: Charmhub |
kubeflow
It may take up to an hour for all charms to become active. To monitor the system with Juju:
watch -c juju status --color
To monitor the K8s pods directly:
watch kubectl get pods -n kubeflow
Access the Kubeflow dashboard
To access the Kubeflow dashboard, you need to find the IP, set the credentials and then use them to log in to the dashboard.
Find the IP address
To find the IP address of the Kubeflow dashboard, run the code:
kubectl get services -n kubeflow
The IP you need is the one attached to the istio-ingressgateway component.
If youâre using MicroK8s, with the typical metallb add-on:
You donât need to do this. The URL is always http://10.64.140.43.nip.io. Note that, if you have set up DNS, you should use the resolvable address used by istio-ingressgateway.
See more: Kubernetes |
kubectl get
Set credentials
Use the IP address you just obtained to set the URL in the dex-auth and oidc-gatekeeper components:
juju config dex-auth public-url=http://<IP address>
juju config oidc-gatekeeper public-url=http://<IP address>
Configure dex-auth with a username and password:
juju config dex-auth static-username=<new username>
juju config dex-auth static-password=<new password>
See more: Juju OLM |
juju config, Charmhub >dex-auth> Configure
Access the dashboard and log in
The Kubeflow dashboard is acessed using the IP found in the previous step, appending nip.io, for example: http://10.64.140.43.nip.io. If accessing the Dashboard remotely, this URL can be made available over SSH and a SOCKS proxy - see How to setup SSH for steps.
