Deploying Applications from the App Hub

The app store is a public repository of applications on the platform. Members of each organization on the platform can view the apps on the app store. Users of different organizations on the platform can apply to shelve their own apps in the app store. Users who have permission to create apps can also deploy apps directly from the app store.

Demonstrate the use of Metabase that is already available in the app store.For application templates to install applications, see Managing Application Template

Accessing a successfully deployed Metabase application instance

The Metabase in the example is configured with only service and cannot be accessed outside the cluster. Additional routing rules can be configured to forward access through the cluster domain.

Note

This operation requires contacting the cluster administrator.

The cluster administrator selects Go to Containers > Route from the left navigation and configures the routing forwarding rules to the service port by deploying the created service.

When finished, view the URL and click to access it.
