# Installing GitLab on Kubernetes
NOTE: **Note**: These charts have been tested on Google Kubernetes Engine. Other
Kubernetes installations may work as well, if not please [open an issue](https://gitlab.com/charts/issues).
The easiest method to deploy GitLab on [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/) is
to take advantage of GitLab's Helm charts. [Helm] is a package
management tool for Kubernetes, allowing apps to be easily managed via their
Charts. A [Chart] is a detailed description of the application including how it
should be deployed, upgraded, and configured.
## Chart Overview
-**[GitLab Chart](gitlab_chart.html)**: Deploys GitLab on Kubernetes. Includes all the required components to get started, and can scale to large deployments.
-**[GitLab Runner Chart](gitlab_runner_chart.md)**: For deploying just the GitLab Runner.
- Other Charts
-[GitLab-Omnibus](gitlab_omnibus.md): Chart based on the Omnibus GitLab package, only suitable for small deployments. Deprecated, we strongly recommend using the [gitlab](#gitlab-chart) chart.
-[Community contributed charts](#community-contributed-charts): Community contributed charts.
