Announcement
Kyverno - Kubernetes Native Policy Management Engine
Kyverno is a policy engine designed for Kubernetes. It can validate, mutate, and generate configurations using policies. It is an open source Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project.
Project Introduction
Summary
Kyverno is a policy engine built for Kubernetes. It allows managing policies as Kubernetes resources, enabling administrators to declare policy as code to validate, mutate, and generate configurations.
Problem Solved
Ensuring configuration compliance and security policies across Kubernetes clusters at scale is challenging. Manual checks are error-prone and time-consuming. Kyverno automates this enforcement.
Core Features
Policy Enforcement
Validate, mutate, and generate Kubernetes resources based on policy rules.
Kubernetes Native Policies
Policies are managed as Kubernetes resources, using standard YAML and Kustomize.
Tech Stack
Use Cases
Kyverno is versatile and can be applied to various scenarios within a Kubernetes environment:
Enforcing Security Best Practices
Details
Automatically reject or modify resource requests that violate security best practices, such as disallowing root user or requiring resource limits.
User Value
Improves cluster security posture by preventing insecure configurations from being deployed.
Automating Configuration Standards
Details
Ensure all namespaces have specific labels, annotations, or network policies automatically applied upon creation.
User Value
Ensures consistency across the cluster and reduces manual configuration effort.
