Hi All,

Hope you are doing well.

We are trying to setup AWX on Kubernetes. There are three options to do that

1. Use AWX [https://github.com/ansible/awx](https://github.com/ansible/awx)

2. Adwex Heml Chart [https://hub.helm.sh/charts/adwerx/awx](https://hub.helm.sh/charts/adwerx/awx)

3. Lifen Helm Chart [https://hub.helm.sh/charts/lifen/awx](https://hub.helm.sh/charts/lifen/awx)

Could you please suggest the better way and easy to scale up and scale down? Or let us know in case of there is 4th option available

Regards,  
Ajit

Thank Selvam for your replay

Will I be able to autoscale based on the load in K8S and how to do that after installation? is there any reference available?

There I no reference in awx but you can use k8s procedure to scale up as deployment. It is k8s function.
