Gero Posmyk-Leinemann d66c18e726 [docs] Align docs with the following decisions:
- restrict to _one_ ingress mode: `hosts` with subdomain certs
 - remove all references to the old self-hosted repository
 - replace all automatisms with copy-n-paste
 - try to reduce text :-)

# Install Gitpod Self-Hosted on Kubernetes
This section describes how to install Gitpod on any Kubernetes cluster.
Gitpod also provides more optimized installations offering better performance for particular cloud providers:
* *Google Cloud Platform*: Install Gitpod in a blank GCP project [using a script that automates the procedure](../install-on-gcp-script/).
* *AWS*: Install Gitpod on AWS [using a script that automates the procedure](../install-on-aws-script/).
Gitpod is installed using [Helm](https://helm.sh). The chart can be found [here](https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/blob/master/chart/).
## Installation
To initiate the deployment run the following commands:
```console
git clone https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod
cd gitpod/chart
helm repo add charts.gitpod.io https://charts.gitpod.io
helm repo add stable https://charts.helm.sh/stable
helm repo add stable https://helm.min.io/
helm repo update
helm dep up
helm install gitpod .
```
> Review the deployment worked properly by running `kubectl get pods`. Eventually all pods should be up-and-running. In case they are not have a look the the [Troubleshooting Guide](../troubleshooting/)
1. Configure [ingress into the cluster](../configure-ingress/)
2. Go to [https://\<your-domain.com\>](https://\<your-domain.com\>) and follow the steps to complete the installation.
## Recommended Configuration
Without further configuration the Helm chart installs a working Gitpod installation in a lot of scenarios.
Yet, there are certain things you might want to review when installing Gitpod for long term use and/or a bigger audience:
* [**Database**](../database/): Configure where Gitpod stores all internal runtime data.
* [**Storage**](../storage/): Configure where Gitpod persists workspace content.
* [**Docker Registry**](../docker-registry/): Configure where Gitpod stores workspace images that are build at runtime.
## Customization
Further customizations:
* [**Kubernetes Nodes**](../nodes/): Configure file system layout and the workspace's node associativity.
* [**Workspaces**](../workspaces/): Configure workspace sizing.
