Hello and welcome to the Novu community!
Deploying Novu on Kubernetes, especially on AWS EKS, is indeed a nuanced topic. Currently, there is no official public Kubernetes deployment supported by Novu. This means you might face challenges such as the lack of official guidelines for deploying Novu Web containers on Kubernetes. Novu's guide specifically mentions that you would need to build your own image and push it to your own registry due to the way the web container image is compiled when the container starts (1) .
For deploying multiple pods of API, worker, and WS services, the documentation doesn't provide explicit examples for Kubernetes but does mention a Helm deployment available in the community repository. This could potentially be used to scale services across multiple pods, assuming you can handle the setup and configuration appropriately .
If you're looking into deploying Novu at a scale that requires Kubernetes, you might want to consider contacting Novu's sales for more tailored support or exploring the commercial self-host plan, which provides more robust deployment options and support for Kubernetes (2) .
For practical steps and further guidance, reviewing the community-driven Helm charts on Novu's GitHub might offer some insights, though keep in mind this is not officially supported by Novu and could require significant customization (1) .
For any further assistance, exploring the community forums or GitHub issues related to Kubernetes could also provide more user-driven solutions and advice.
Can we run multple pods or containers of API, worker and WS Services of Novu, all these services are scalable or not?
@Fakhar, you just advanced to level 1!
