This repository is the official Helm chart collection for deploying Kong API Gateway and related operators (Kong Ingress Controller, Kong Gateway Operator, Kong Operator, Kong AI Gateway) on Kubernetes. It provides production-grade deployment templates with support for DB-less, PostgreSQL, hybrid mode, enterprise features, cert-manager integration, Prometheus monitoring, and admission webhooks. The architecture is a multi-chart Helm repository with subcharts for CRDs (kic-crds, gwapi-crds, ko-crds) and extensive CI snapshot testing via helm-chartsnap. Key entry points include the main `charts/kong/` chart for the gateway and ingress controller, `charts/kong-operator/` for the Kong Operator managing Konnect and AI gateway resources, and `charts/gateway-operator/` for the Gateway API operator. External dependencies include Kong container images, cert-manager, Bitnami PostgreSQL (optional), and Konnect SaaS for enterprise deployments. The repository is actively maintained with regular releases, changelogs, and upgrade guides, though CRDs are auto-generated and may drift from upstream operator versions.
