Overview

AppViewX KUBE+ consists of a control plane and a set of in-cluster components, designed on a microservice architecture and deployed as a container workload. The control plane is equipped with the ability to gain valuable insights into SSL/TLS certificates throughout K8s clusters and enforce PKI policies for these clusters. Meanwhile, the in-cluster components handle the automated lifecycle management of x.509 digital certificates for K8s clusters and container workloads.

• KUBE+: As a control plane feature, KUBE+ serves as a centralized hub, empowering users to effortlessly discover, manage, and automate certificate issuance via a robust policy-driven approach.

• Cert-Orchestrator: The primary component of KUBE+ which is deployed within a Kubernetes cluster and is responsible for managing the lifecycle of certificates.
