VPC agent Upgrades

🚀 Updates to the VPC Agent

Context: DrDroid's VPC agent enables you to securely integrate tools inside your VPC to DrDroid cloud — no changes to security groups or ingress policies required.

With the latest update to the drd-vpc-agent, we’re making deployments faster and smarter.

⚡ One Command Setup for Docker & Helm

You can now install or update the VPC Agent using a single command, directly from your machine.

For Docker:

./deploy_docker.sh <API_TOKEN>

For Helm:

cd helm
./deploy_helm.sh <API_TOKEN>

No more manual steps. Just plug in your API token from the platform and go.


🛠️ Helm-Specific Enhancements

✅ Automatic Kubernetes Integration

When installed via Helm, the agent automatically registers a Kubernetes connector for the cluster it's deployed in.

  • The agent gains read-only access to the cluster. It can start fetching cluster metrics immediately—no manual setup needed.

🔄 Daily Auto-Upgrades

The VPC Agent now supports auto-updates of the agent image every day at 00:00 UTC.

  • Default deployment namespace: drdroid
  • To customize, simply update the namespace in helm/deploy_helm.sh
