Configure your InfluxDB cluster

InfluxDB Clustered deployments are managed using Kubernetes and configured using a YAML configuration file. Apply configuration settings to your cluster by editing and applying a Kubernetes custom resource (CRD) called AppInstance. The AppInstance CRD is defined in a YAML file (use the example-customer.yml provided by InfluxData as a template).

We recommend editing the AppInstance resource directly as the primary method for configuring and managing your InfluxDB cluster. If you are required to use Helm, there is a InfluxDB Clustered Helm chart available that acts as a wrapper for the AppInstance resource and lets you use Helm to manage configuration changes in your InfluxDB cluster.
