Kubernetes Operations (kops)

Build Status Go Report Card

The easiest way to get a production Kubernetes cluster up and running.

What is kops?

We like to think of it as kubectl for clusters.

kops lets you deploy production grade (and HA) Kubernetes clusters in the cloud.

We encourage everyone to read more about adding a feature before contributing.
