Set Up Self-Hosted

Opal fully supports deployment on your own infrastructure and is built to support the most complex environments and regulatory requirements.

We recommend that you deploy Opal Self-Hosted on a managed Kubernetes service:

Prerequisites

An Opal team member will provide you with a license.

Set up a DNS record with your DNS provider that will be used for Opal. You'll also need a TLS certificate that's valid for the configured DNS record.

Example: opal.acme.com is an A record pointing to the public IP address of the on-premise instance.

Port range	Protocol	Source	Description
22	TCP	Internet or VPC	SSH to connect to instance
80	TCP	Internet or VPC	Redirect to HTTPS
443	TCP	Internet or VPC	HTTPS to access Opal
8800	TCP	Internet or VPC	Opal On-Premise setup dashboard

Port	Hostname	Description
443	app.opal.dev	Opal platform
443	proxy.replicated.com	Docker image registry
443	k8s.kurl.sh	Repository for pulling installer bundle
443	endpoint6.collection.us2.sumologic.com	Log forwarding for debugging purposes
443	stream.launchdarkly.com events.launchdarkly.com clientstream.launchdarkly.com	Feature flag management, critical to how Opal safely deploys new features
443	auth.opal.dev	Auth0 tenant, required for authentication

If you restrict outbound traffic to specific IPs, you'll also need to whitelist IPs for the following services:

Port	Hostname	Description
443	iam.<REGION>.amazonaws.com ec2.<REGION>.amazonaws.com rds.<REGION>.amazonaws.com eks.<REGION>.amazonaws.com	AWS
443	cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com	Google Cloud Platform
443	api.github.com	Github
443	api.pagerduty.com	PagerDuty
