Helm Chart

Jan 1, 0001

Definition

A Helm Chart is a package manager for Kubernetes that allows users to define, install, and manage applications within a Kubernetes cluster. It encapsulates Kubernetes resources and configurations into a single package, enabling easy deployment and version management. Helm Charts facilitate the sharing and reuse of Kubernetes applications by providing a standardized format for application deployment.
