Framework Management

What Are Frameworks?

A framework is a namespace in Kubernetes. Ketch uses frameworks/namespaces to:

Isolate the deployment of workloads
Define ingress configuration

When you create a framework using Ketch, Ketch will automatically create a namespace in your cluster.

Ketch will use the ingress configuration you enter when creating a framework to create endpoints for the applications you deploy automatically.

Creating Frameworks

You can use the example below to manage frameworks in Ketch using Crossplane:

apiVersion: ketch.io/v1alpha1
kind: Framework
metadata:
  name: framework
spec:
  forProvider:
    name: myframework
    ingressController:
      className: istio
      serviceEndpoint: 1.2.3.4
      type: istio
