Jaeger Deployment Model — **Jaeger on Compliant Kubernetes Deployment Model**
This help you build a mental model on how to access Jaeger as an Application Developer and how to connect your application to Jaeger.

This page will help you succeed in connecting your application to Jaeger tracing which meets your security and compliance requirements.

Getting Access¶

Your administrator will set up the authentication reverse proxy inside Compliant Kubernetes, which will give you access to Jaeger UI.

Prepare your application¶

The Jaeger agent is exposed as a DaemonSet. Your application needs to be told where the agent is located by setting the environment variable JAEGER_AGENT_HOST to the value of the Kubernetes node’s IP:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
spec:
  selector:
    ...
  template:
    ...
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: my-app
        image: acme/my-app:my-version
        env:
        - name: JAEGER_AGENT_HOST
          valueFrom:
            fieldRef:
              fieldPath: status.hostIP

Follow the Go-Live Checklist¶

You should be all set. Before going into production, don't forget to go through the go-live checklist.
