We will use the chart and multi-arch images by referring to their online repository

## Kubernetes Cluster Configuration

### Node Sizing

| Resource | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| **CPU** | 32–48 CPUs per node |
| **RAM** | At least 32 GiB per node |

By default, the Feldera control plane and pipelines run on the same nodes.
Use [nodeSelectors](/get-started/enterprise/helm-chart-reference#node-selectors) to run them on different nodes or node types.

RAM requirements vary by workload. See the [memory usage](/operations/memory) documentation for detailed guidance.

### Persistent Volume Sizing
Persistent volumes should meet the following specifications:
1. **Volume Size:** At least the size of the input data. Feldera stores state to perform incremental computations, so the volume must be large enough to hold it. Users can [expand pipeline storage](/operations/guide/#expand-existing-pipeline-storage) on demand.
2. **IOPS:** At least 16,000
3. **Throughput:** At least 1,000 MB/s

Recommended disk types by cloud provider:

| Cloud Provider | Disk Type |
|---|---|
| AWS | **gp3** |
| Azure | **Ultra Disk** |
| GCP | **Hyperdisk Balanced** |

## Installing Feldera Enterprise

1. **Kubernetes access:** check that your `kubectl` is configured
