About

Helm is an open-source package manager for Kubernetes that allows users to find, share, and deploy software on Kubernetes clusters. It uses a packaging format called Charts, which describe applications and enable repeatable installations, versioning, and easy rollbacks. Helm is maintained by a community of over 400 developers and is part of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) ecosystem.

Problem

Managing, deploying, and versioning complex applications on Kubernetes is difficult without a standardized packaging and release management system.

For

developers and DevOps engineers working with Kubernetes

How it works

Helm uses reusable, versioned packages called Charts to define, install, and upgrade even complex Kubernetes applications, with support for hooks, rollbacks, and public or private chart repositories.
