I'm interested in using K8ssandra to deploy Apache Cassandra on Kubernetes. Can you explain what K8ssandra is, what core components it includes, and provide the initial steps or commands required to get started with its installation?
Navigate to 'https://k8ssandra.io/'. Click on the 'Get Started' link (ID 57) in the header menu. Identify the description of what K8ssandra is and its core components. Locate and extract the initial steps or commands for getting started with its installation. Synthesize the information to answer the task.
The agent successfully navigates to the 'Get Started' page. The agent states that K8ssandra is an open-source project that brings together a complete operational data platform for Kubernetes built on Apache Cassandra® NoSQL database. The agent identifies and lists core components such as APIs, monitoring, and backups (or more specific components like Cassandra, Medusa, Reaper, etc., if found on the 'Get Started' page). The agent provides the initial steps or commands required for installation, such as 'Install k8ssandra-operator' using Helm, and the command 'helm install k8ssandra-operator k8ssandra/k8ssandra-operator --namespace k8ssandra-operator --create-namespace'.
