The catalog is a repository of Helm charts that are made available to teams in the Akamai App Platform, providing them with golden path templates for seamless and consistent deployments. Here's a short overview of how the catalog works:

Add a Helm chart to the otomi/charts repo in the local Gitea.
Configure which teams can use the chart.
The selected teams can then create workloads from the Helm charts in the catalog.

Default Helm charts

By default, the catalog includes a few Helm charts to help teams get started with common workloads. The default Helm charts are not mandatory to use and can be removed or modified to your needs. They are primarily included as examples and to make it easier to get started.

Team-level helm charts

Kubernetes Deployment (k8s-deployment): Creates a Kubernetes Deployment (to deploy a single image), a Service and a ServiceAccount. Optionally a HorizontalPodAutoscaler, a Prometheus ServiceMonitor and a Configmap can be created.
Kubernetes Deployment with Open Telemetry Instrumentation (k8s-deployment-otel): Creates a Kubernetes Deployment (to deploy a single image), a Service, a ServiceAccount, an OpenTelemetryCollector and an Instrumentation. Optionally a HorizontalPodAutoscaler, a Prometheus ServiceMonitor and a Configmap can be created.
Kubernetes Canary Deployments (k8s-deployments-canary): Creates two Kubernetes Deployments (to deploy 2 versions of an image), a Service and a ServiceAccount. Optionally a HorizontalPodAutoscaler, a Prometheus ServiceMonitor and a Configmap (for each version) can be created.
Knative-service (knative-service): Creates a Knative Service (to deploy a single image), a Service and a ServiceAccount. Optionally a Prometheus ServiceMonitor can be created.
PostgreSQL cluster (postgresql-cluster): Creates a cloudnativepg PostgreSQL Cluster. Optionally a Prometheus PodMonitor and a Configmap (for adding a postgresql dashboard to Grafana) can be created.
Redis master-replica cluster (redis-cluster): Creates a Redis master-replica cluster.
RabbitMQ Cluster and/or Queues (rabbitmq-cluster): Creates a RabbitmqCluster, queues and Policys. Using the rabbitmq-cluster Helm chart requires RabbitMQ to be enabled by a platform administrator.
SpinApp (spin-app): Creates a SpinApp. A SpinApp is a Custom Resource to deploy WebAssembly microservices and web applications based on Spin. Using the spin-app Helm chart requires a spin-shim-executor to be added to the Team by a platform administrator.

Admin helm charts

Kwasm Operator (kwasm-operator): Adds WebAssembly support to the Kubernetes nodes. kwasm-operator is a prerequisite for installing spin-operator.
Spin Operator ( spin-operator): Enables the deployment of Spin applications to Kubernetes.
Spin Shim Executor ( spin-shim-executor): Creates a SpinAppExecutor utilized by Spin Operator to determine which executor type should be used in running a SpinApp.
KubeFlow Pipelines Cluster Resources (kfp-cluster-resources): Installs the KubeFlow Pipelines CRDs.
Kubeflow Pipelines (kubeflow-pipelines): Installs KubeFlow Pipelines within any team.

Customize the catalog

Helm charts can be added, removed, or modified by making commits to the otomi/charts repository within your cluster's local Gitea instance. Pull down the otomi/charts repository, make your changes, and push those changes. Any newly added charts will immediately become available in the catalog for teams to use.

Configure chart access

For charts to become available for teams to use, teams need to be given access to use a chart. The catalog supports the following access options:

Everybody: If a chart can be used by all teams, including the team-admin Team, add the following to the rbac.yaml in the root of the otomi/charts repository:
```
rbac:
  chart-name: null
```
Specific teams:

If a chart is only allowed to be used by one or more specific teams, add the following to the rbac.yaml:
```
rbac:
  chart-name:
    - team-demo
    - team-hello
```
Admin team (team-admin) only: To allow a chart to be used by the team-admin only, add the following to the rbac.yaml:
```
rbac:
  chart-name:
    - team-admin
```
