# Install Grafana Loki with Helm

The [Helm](https://helm.sh/) chart lets you configure, install, and upgrade Grafana Loki within a Kubernetes cluster.

This guide references the Loki Helm chart version 3.0 or greater and contains the following sections:

- [Helm chart components](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/concepts/)
- [Install monolithic Loki](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/install-monolithic/)
- [Install microservice Loki](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/install-microservices/)
- [Install scalable Loki](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/install-scalable/)
- [Cloud Deployment Guides](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/deployment-guides/)
- [Configure storage](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/configure-storage/)
- [Helm chart values](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/reference/)
- [Monitoring](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/monitor-and-alert/)

If you are installing Grafana Enterprise Logs, follow the [GEL Helm installation](/docs/enterprise-logs/v3.6.x/setup/helm/).

## Deployment Recommendations

Loki is designed to be run in two states:

- [Monolithic](/docs/loki/v3.6.x/get-started/deployment-modes/#monolithic-mode): Recommended when you are running Loki as part of a small meta monitoring stack.
- [Microservices](/docs/loki/v3.6.x/get-started/deployment-modes/#microservices-mode): For workloads that require high availability and scalability. Loki is deployed in this mode internally at Grafana Labs.

> Tip
> 
> Loki can also be deployed in [Simple Scalable mode](/docs/loki/v3.6.x/get-started/deployment-modes/#simple-scalable). But Simple Scalable Deployment (SSD) mode is being deprecated. For the best possible experience in production, we recommend deploying Loki in *microservices* mode.

## Cloud Deployment Guides

The following guides provide step-by-step instructions for deploying Loki on cloud providers:

- [Amazon EKS](/docs/loki/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/deployment-guides/aws/)
- [Azure AKS](/docs/loki/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/deployment-guides/azure/)
- [Google GKE](/docs/loki/v3.6.x/setup/install/helm/deployment-guides/gcp/)
