Loki Helm Chart: Install memcached with values.yaml #10171

Open nhippe-ds opened 1 year ago

nhippe-ds commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When installing Loki using the helm chart, under "Before you begin:" it lists Optionally a Memcached deployment for better performance. Consult the caching section on how to configure Memcached.

When going to the caching section is lists how one might be able to deploy memcached outside of the Loki helm chart, using other means (Bitnami helm chart).

Describe the solution you'd like If memcached truly provides better query performance, it would be nice to have the install baked into the Loki helm chart. Similar to mimir-distributed values.yaml

Describe alternatives you've considered Managing separate helm charts/override values for memcached and loki. Using the helm template output for memcached components (pdb, sts, svc, etc..) provided by Grafana Mimir helmchart.

Any updates on this?

There's no official word about loki-distributed being deprecated in the near future but there is a migration doc loki-distributed to Loki chart so it looks like it might be.

For example mimir-distributed is the recommended chart on docs and comes bundled with memcached.
