Container runtime environment and kgs image repository

Container runtime environment and kgs image repository

Deploying software as containers requires a container runtime. This documentation provides the required information. It also provides examples for docker container runtime.

Installation of docker or another container runtime following Open Container Initiative (OCI) standard is prerequisite for deploying tia® Core or tia® Classic products available for container deployment.

 

OCI images provided by kgs Software are available at https://images.kgs-cloud.de .

An account is required. It is provided for licensed installations via kgs Customer Support.

Images that are no longer supported will be removed without further notice.

Example preparation with docker container runtime:

docker login https://images.kgs-cloud.de

Docker will prompt for user and password.

 

kgs strongly recommends to use an image repository to keep copies of downloaded images. Using an image repository improves image availability, deployment efficiency, and container startup time.
