Install the Aerospike Kubernetes Operator
For ARM architecture, make sure the installed OLM version is 0.25.0 or later.
Install the Operator
There are two methods for installing the Aerospike Kubernetes Operator. The primary and recommended method is to use Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM).
The second method is to use Helm charts to install the Operator (which will then in turn manage the Aerospike clusters).
Method 1: Install the Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM)
We recommend using Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) to run and manage the Aerospike Kubernetes Operator in production environments. This applies to Red Hat OpenShift clusters as well.

Method 2: Install the Operator using Helm Charts
In some cases, particularly if you use Helm charts to deploy Aerospike clusters directly rather than relying on the Operator, you may need to use the Helm chart to also install the Operator.
There are some mandatory, manual, steps if installing this way. Please ensure you need this behavior and follow the instructions closely.
