The ```splunk/splunk-operator``` chart no longer contains the CRDs to install on the first deployment due to the size of the CRDs. Helm has a chart size [limit of 1MB](https://helm.sh/docs/topics/advanced/#sql-storage-backend) due to internal limits in Kubernetes' underlying etcd key-value store, and the Splunk Operator for Kubernetes CRDs are too big to fit into the helm chart to deploy the operator. To install the CRDs for the first time, or to update the CRDs to the latest versions, follow one of the following steps.

-Installing the Splunk Operator using Helm allows you to quickly deploy the operator and Splunk Enterprise in a Kubernetes cluster. The operator and custom resources are easily configurable allowing for advanced installations including support for Splunk Validated Architectures. Helm also provides a number of features to manage the operator and custom resource lifecycle. The [Installation using Helm](Helm.md) page will walk you through installing and configuring Splunk Enterprise deployments using Helm charts.
