Pelias on Kubernetes

Importers

Each importer has different memory requirements. Note that they all require the PIP service (6GB+ RAM) to be running first.

• Who's on First (requires about 1GB of RAM)
• OpenStreetMap (requires between 0.25GB and 6GB of RAM depending on import size)
• OpenAddresses (requires 1GB of RAM)
• Geonames (requires ~0.5GB of RAM)
• Polylines (requires 1GB of RAM)

Use the data sources documentation to decide which importers to be run.

Importers can be run in any order, in parallel or one at a time.

Running the charts

Start by running all the services

helm install pelias --namespace pelias . --values values.yaml

Restore a snapshot

Start by copying the snapshot inside the elasticsearch pod

kubectl cp elasticsearch-snapshot.tar.gz <namespace>/<pod-id>:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data

Then extract and restore indices into elasticsearch:

helm install pelias-build --namespace pelias ./build --values values.yaml
