Helm
Helm packages the Kubernetes manifests of an application into a chart. A release is an installed chart, configured with a values.yaml file and upgraded or rolled back as a unit.
Key concepts #
- Chart: the package with templates and default values.
- Repository: where charts are published.
- Release: a chart installed in a cluster.
- Helm can also be driven from Terraform.
Learn it #
Install Helm and use it with the Terraform Helm provider.
