kops - Kubernetes Operations
The easiest way to get a production grade Kubernetes cluster up and running.
2020-05-06 etcd-manager Certificate Expiration Advisory
kops versions released today contain a critical fix to etcd-manager: 1 year after creation (or first adopting etcd-manager), clusters will stop responding due to expiration of a TLS certificate. Upgrading kops to 1.15.3, 1.16.2, 1.17.0-beta.2, or 1.18.0-alpha.3 is highly recommended. Please see the advisory for the full details.
What is kops?
We like to think of it as kubectl for clusters.
kops helps you create, destroy, upgrade and maintain production-grade, highly
available, Kubernetes clusters from the command line. AWS (Amazon Web Services)
is currently officially supported, with GCE and OpenStack in beta support, and other platforms planned.
Can I see it in action?
