Overview

Add-ons extend the functionality of Kubernetes in a pluggable way.

This page lists some of the available add-ons and links to their respective installation instructions.

Networking and Network Policy

  • Weave Net is an easy, fast and reliable pod network that carries on working in the face of network partitions, does not depend on a database, and supports Kubernetes policy.
  • Calico is a simple, scalable, secure L3 networking and network policy provider.
  • Canal unites Flannel and Calico, providing cloud native networking and network policy.

Visualization & Control

  • Weave Scope is a tool for graphically visualizing your containers, pods, services etc. Use it in conjunction with a Weave Cloud account or host the UI yourself.

Legacy Add-ons

There are several other add-ons documented in the deprecated cluster/addons directory.

Well-maintained ones should be linked to here. PRs welcome!
