If Jaeger needs to be set up in Kubernetes cluster as a helm chart, one can use this: https://github.com/jaegertracing/helm-charts/tree/master/charts/jaeger It can delploy either Elasticsearch or Cassandara as a storage backend. Which is just a matter of right value being passed in to the chart:

storage:
  type: elasticsearch

This section shows the helm command as an example: https://github.com/jaegertracing/helm-charts/tree/master/charts/jaeger#installing-the-chart-using-a-new-elasticsearch-cluster
