1. KlustronDB Cluster Installation and User Guide

If the installation environment can connect to the internet, it is recommended to use the one-click installation tool to initialize the server and install the KlustronDB cluster with one click;

If you need to first download the KlustronDB installation package, and then install the KlustronDB cluster offline on a server that usually does not have external network access, please follow the instructions in the KlustronDB Cluster Installation Guide to initialize the server and quickly install a KlustronDB cluster.

Installing a KlustronDB cluster on a set of computer servers is divided into two main steps. First, you need to initialize (bootstrap) the database servers. This step installs the KlustronDB components on each computer server and ensures that these components can work together, as well as configure and start the components responsible for cluster management. Each database server only needs to perform the bootstrap operation once. When expanding the KlustronDB cluster later, these new servers also need to be initialized first, and then XPanel is used for the expansion.

After the database server initialization is complete, users can use XPanel to install and manage KlustronDB clusters.

KlustronDB requires the use of several third-party tools, including HDFS for storing backup files, and ElasticSearch, FileBeat, and Kibana for storing node log files. These tools need to be installed separately by the user on the database server in advance, and their connection methods must be set in the parameter file when initializing the server.

We provide simple installation and usage tutorials for these third-party tools. For complete tutorials, please refer to the technical documentation of these tools.
