## What happened?

Hi,  
I am new to this tool.  
and I am reading your doc, [Installation | Pomerium](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/deploy/k8s/install).

I preferred using helm, but pomerium did not support helm chart anymore.

when I followed your document,  
cert-manager is required, but in my case, I have domain (AWS Route53) and certificate (AWS ACM).  
In this case should I install cert-manager?

Second, I use aws-loadbalancer-controller for ingress controller.  
And what can I do for next?

I think doc needs to add more installation case and more detail.

## What’s your environment like?

- Pomerium version (retrieve with `pomerium --version`): latest
- Server Operating System/Architecture/Cloud: aws eks

## Additional context

I am looking for secure access tool for aws rds from developer’s PC.  
In this case, can I use pomerium, right?

Yes. Can we invite you for [Pomerium Zero beta](https://www.pomerium.com/pomerium-zero/), our newest product? It will help you skip the need to install cert manager.
