Add external Service to Kyma not possible in Trial

[florianpeschke]

Dear Community,

I was following the guide for the example "orders-service", available on https://kyma-project.io/docs/1.21/root/getting-started/

The guide is wants to present the features of the Service Catalog, by adding an external Redis service and use is as external database: https://kyma-project.io/docs/1.20/root/getting-started/#getting-started-add-the-redis-service

Unfortunately, I do not see the option "Configuration > Addons" in my created namespace. Is this related to the limits of the SAP BTP trial or related to the Kyma Runtime on SAP BTP?

Thank you!

Hi Florian,

You can find an in cluster example for redis in the mission

https://developers.sap.com/mission.cp-kyma-build-app.html

The mission

https://developers.sap.com/mission.cp-kyma-full-stack.html

details using mssql in cluster, but within the git repo that is referenced you will find an example using sql from microsoft azure that is a direct replacement.
