Helm

Package manager for Kubernetes applications

About Helm

The package manager for Kubernetes, using charts to define, install and upgrade applications, with templating, versioning and release management that makes complex deployments repeatable and shareable. It is free and open source, so teams can self-host it, inspect the code and adapt it to their own infrastructure without licence fees or vendor lock-in. Typical users run it alongside existing workflows to cut manual effort, improve visibility and keep full control over data, configuration and upgrades over time.
