kOps (Kubernetes Operations)

Glossary Page

kOps is an open-source tool that automates the creation, upgrading, destruction, and maintenance of highly available, production-grade Kubernetes clusters while also provisioning the necessary cloud infrastructure. Currently, kOps supports AWS officially, while DigitalOcean, GCE, and OpenStack are in beta support, and Azure is in alpha. The tool provides a fully automated installation process, identifies clusters using DNS, and offers self-healing functionality, as everything runs in Auto-Scaling Groups. kOps also supports multiple operating systems, including Amazon Linux, Debian, Flatcar, RHEL, Rocky, and Ubuntu, and offers high-availability support. Additionally, the tool can directly provision or generate Terraform manifests.
