============
Cert Manager
============
|prod| integrates the open source project cert-manager (cert-manager.io).
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.
.. warning::
The cert-manager is a mandatory application and cannot be removed using the
``system application-remove`` command . Forced removal of cert-manager (using
the ``-force`` option) deletes all certificates, leaving the system is an
unrecoverable state and requiring a system reinstall.
For more information on the cert-manager project, see
`http://cert-manager.io <http://cert-manager.io>`__.
