K8s

We recommend using the HELM method to deploy SRS, see srs-helm. Of course, SRS also supports direct deployment with K8s, refer to SRS K8s.

Actually, HELM is based on K8s and deploys K8s pods, which can be managed with kubectl. However, HELM offers a more convenient way to manage and install applications, so SRS will mainly support HELM in the future.

Compared to Docker, HELM and K8s are mainly for medium to large scale deployments. If your business is not that big, we recommend using Docker or Oryx directly. Generally, if you have less than a thousand streams, please do not use HELM or K8s.
