    Hi,

    The IBM GitHub repository is a great place to start. You'll find a lot of useful information to help you get up and running:

    Don't hesitate to post a message if you get stuck at any point in the process.

    Because this combination is not officially supported (to my knowledge), it could be a (small) challenge. I will check if our tech team has instructions for you, and will inform you ASAP.

    Content Platform Engine (aka the FileNet ) is supported by IBM when deployed on a CNCF-compliant Kubernetes platform (such as Red Hat OpenShift or upstream Kubernetes). Running FileNet directly on Docker work in practice, but it is not an IBM-supported deployment; if you do experiment with Docker, using a Linux host such as Ubuntu is generally more appropriate and closer to a real production setup. For local testing, you can also use Minikube to get you as close as possible to a real Kubernetes environment.

    IBM also provides a series of videos that walk through a full installation on Kubernetes from the ground up:
