Cert-manager is a native Kubernetes certificate management controller, that
|
|
|
|
supports certificate management with external |CAs|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|prod| installs cert-manager and an nginx-ingress-controller in support of
|
|
|
|
http-01 challenges from |CAs|, at bootstrap time, so that cert-manager
|
|
|
|
services are available for hosted containerized applications by default.
