# Deploying ToolJet on Kubernetes
:::info
You should setup a PostgreSQL database manually to be used by ToolJet.
:::
Follow the steps below to deploy ToolJet on a Kubernetes cluster.
1. Setup a PostgreSQL database
ToolJet uses a postgres database as the persistent storage for storing data related to users and apps. We do not have plans to support other databases such as MySQL.
2. Create a Kubernetes secret with name `server`. For the minimal setup, ToolJet requires `pg_host`, `pg_db`, `pg_user`, `pg_password`, `secret_key_base` & `lockbox_key` keys in the secret.
Read **[environment variables reference](/docs/setup/env-vars)**
3. Create a Kubernetes deployment
```bash
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ToolJet/ToolJet/main/deploy/kubernetes/deployment.yaml
```
:::info
The file given above is just a template and might not suit production environments. You should download the file and configure parameters such as the replica count and environment variables according to your needs.
:::
:::info
If there are self signed HTTPS endpoints that Tooljet needs to connect to, please make sure that `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` environment variable is set to the absolute path containing the certificates. You can make use of kubernetes secrets to mount the certificate file onto the containers.
:::
4. Verify if ToolJet is running
```bash
kubectl get pods
```
5. Create a Kubernetes services to publish the Kubernetes deployment that you've created. This step varies with cloud providers. We have a [template](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ToolJet/ToolJet/main/deploy/kubernetes/service.yaml) for exposing the ToolJet server as a service using an AWS loadbalancer.
**Examples:**
- [Application load balancing on Amazon EKS](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/alb-ingress.html)
- [GKE Ingress for HTTP(S) Load Balancing](https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/concepts/ingress)
:::tip
If you want to serve ToolJet client from services such as Firebase or Netlify, please read the client Setup documentation **[here](/docs/setup/client)**.
