For optimal performance, ArangoDB should be configured with locally attached
SSD storage.

To accomplish this, one must create `PersistentVolumes` for all servers that
The easiest way to accomplish this is to deploy an
[`ArangoLocalStorage` resource](./StorageResource.md).
The ArangoDB Storage Operator will use it to provide `PersistentVolumes` for you.

The alternative is to create `PersistentVolumes` manually, for all servers that
need persistent storage (single, agents & dbservers).
E.g. for a `Cluster` with 3 agents and 5 dbservers, you must create 8 volumes.

## Installation

The ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator needs to be installed in your Kubernetes
cluster first. To do so, clone this repository and run:
cluster first.

To do so, run (replace `<version>` with the version of the operator that you want to install):

```bash
kubectl apply -f manifests/crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f manifests/arango-deployment.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arangodb/kube-arangodb/<version>/manifests/crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arangodb/kube-arangodb/<version>/manifests/arango-deployment.yaml
```

To use `ArangoLocalStorage`, also run:

```bash
kubectl apply -f manifests/arango-storage.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arangodb/kube-arangodb/<version>/manifests/arango-storage.yaml
```

You can find the latest release of the ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator
[in the kube-arangodb repository](https://github.com/arangodb/kube-arangodb/releases/latest).

## Cluster creation

Once the operator is running, you can create your ArangoDB cluster
by creating a custom resource and deploying it.

For example:
For example (all examples can be found [in the kube-arangodb repository](https://github.com/arangodb/kube-arangodb/tree/master/examples)):

The second command installs a `Deployment` that runs the operator that controls
`ArangoDeployment` resources.

The optional third command installs a `Deployment` that runs the operator that
provides `PersistentVolumes` on local disks of the cluster nodes.
Use this when running on bare-metal or if there is no provisioner for fast
storage in your Kubernetes cluster.

## Deploying your first ArangoDB database

The first database we are going to deploy is a single server database.
