Helm Charts for Drupal

A [Helm chart][helm] for deploying Drupal on Kubernetes.

This chart is designed to support a modern, stateless, enterprise-ready Drupal deployment with optional supporting services that can be enabled for local development, testing, or self-hosted environments.

Quick start

Add the DrupalWxT Helm repository:

helm repo add drupalwxt https://drupalwxt.github.io/helm-drupal
helm repo update

Install the chart:

helm install my-drupal drupalwxt/drupal

Included optional dependencies

The chart can deploy the following supporting services when enabled:

• File Storage – Azure Files (for stateless Drupal file storage)
• MariaDB / MySQL-compatible database (optional)
• PostgreSQL (optional)
• Valkey (Redis-compatible cache & queue) (optional)
• Apache Solr (search)
• Varnish (HTTP caching / reverse proxy)

These services are intended primarily for development, CI, and self-contained deployments.

In production environments, external managed services are typically recommended.
