Kubernetes is a container orchestration platform to deploy applications
|
|
in a cluster without downtime and that scales as you need.
|
|
|
|
With the GitLab integration with Kubernetes, you can:
|
|
|
|
1. [Connect your cluster](#connect-your-cluster-to-gitlab).
|
|
1. [Manage your cluster](#manage-your-cluster).
|
|
1. [Deploy your cluster](#deploy-to-your-cluster).
|
|
|
|
See the [Kubernetes clusters versions supported by GitLab](connect/index.md#supported-cluster-versions).
|
|
|
|
## Connect your cluster to GitLab
|
|
|
|
Learn how to [create new and connect existing clusters to GitLab](connect/index.md).
|
|
|
|
## Manage your cluster
|
|
|
|
- [Cluster Management Project](../../clusters/management_project.md):
|
|
create a project to manage your cluster's shared resources requiring
|
|
`cluster-admin` privileges such as an Ingress controller.
|
|
- [Cluster Management Project Template](../../clusters/management_project_template.md): start a cluster management project directly from a template.
|
|
- [Migrate to Cluster Management Project](../../clusters/migrating_from_gma_to_project_template.md): migrate from the deprecated GitLab Managed Apps to Cluster Management Projects.
|
|
- [GitLab Managed Apps](../../clusters/applications.md) (deprecated in favor of Cluster Management Projects): configure applications in your cluster directly from GitLab.
|
|
- [Cluster integrations](../../clusters/integrations.md): install
|
|
third-party applications into your cluster and manage them from GitLab.
|
|
- [GitLab-managed clusters](../../project/clusters/gitlab_managed_clusters.md):
|
|
enable GitLab to automatically create resources for your clusters.
|
|
- [Cost management](../../clusters/cost_management.md): see insights into your cluster's resource usage.
|
|
- [Crossplane integration](../../clusters/crossplane.md): manage your cluster's resources and cloud infrastructure with Crossplane.
|
|
|
|
### Monitor your cluster
|
|
|
|
- [Prometheus monitoring](../../project/integrations/prometheus_library/kubernetes.md): detect and monitor Kubernetes metrics with Prometheus.
|
|
- [NGINX monitoring](../../project/integrations/prometheus_library/nginx.md): automatically monitor NGINX Ingress.
|
|
- [Clusters health](manage/clusters_health.md): monitor your cluster's health, such as CPU and memory usage.
|
|
|
|
### Secure your cluster
|
|
|
|
- [Container Host Security](../../project/clusters/protect/container_host_security/index.md): monitor and block activity inside a container and enforce security policies across the cluster.
|
|
- [Container Network security](../../project/clusters/protect/container_network_security/index.md): filter traffic going in and out of the cluster and traffic between pods through a firewall with Cilium NetworkPolicies.
|
|
|
|
## Deploy to your cluster
|
|
|
|
- [CI/CD Tunnel](../../clusters/agent/ci_cd_tunnel.md): use the CI/CD Tunnel to run Kubernetes commands from different projects.
|
|
- [Inventory object](deploy/inventory_object.md): track objects applied to a cluster configured with the Kubernetes Agent.
|
|
- [Auto DevOps](../../../topics/autodevops/index.md): enable Auto DevOps
|
|
to allow GitLab automatically detect, build, test, and deploy applications.
|
|
- [Cluster environments](../../clusters/environments.md): view CI/CD environments deployed to Kubernetes clusters.
|
|
- [Canary Deployments](../../project/canary_deployments.md): deploy app updates to a small portion of the fleet with this Continuous Delivery strategy.
|
|
- [Deploy to your cluster](../../project/clusters/deploy_to_cluster.md):
|
|
deploy applications into your cluster using cluster certificates.
|
|
- [Deploy Boards](../../project/deploy_boards.md): view the current health and status of each CI/CD environment running on your cluster, and the status of deployment pods.
|
|
- [Pod logs](../../project/clusters/kubernetes_pod_logs.md): view the logs of your cluster's running pods.
|
|
- [Serverless](../../project/clusters/serverless/index.md) (deprecated): deploy Serverless applications in Kubernetes environments and cloud Function as a Service (FaaS) environments.
