Kubernetes Patterns

Battle-tested deployment patterns for running Meridian on Kubernetes clusters — from single-node homelabs to multi-AZ production.

Sidecar Injection

Co-locate the Meridian agent as a sidecar container sharing the Pod network namespace. Zero code changes, automatic TLS.

Run one Meridian node per host. Ideal for node-level telemetry, eBPF probes, and kernel instrumentation.

Declarative CRD-driven lifecycle. GitOps-friendly with Flux and ArgoCD. Auto-rollback on health check failure.

Federate Meridian instances across clusters with mTLS and consistent hashing for stateful workloads.

helm repo add meridian https://charts.getnimbus.net
helm install meridian meridian/agent \
  --set mode=sidecar \
  --set licenseKey=$MERIDIAN_KEY
