🚀 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
