Brigade is a tool that allows users to run scriptable and automated tasks as part of a Kubernetes cluster. It provides simple and powerful pipelines through a brigade.js configuration file. Brigade runs inside the Kubernetes cluster, leveraging Docker images. Kashti provides a UI for visualizing Brigade builds, logs, and DevOps workflows. GitHub and other event triggers can be used to trigger Brigade pipelines. Helm helps users define, install, and upgrade complex Kubernetes applications through reusable charts.

12. Helm
The best way to find, share, and use software built
for Kubernetes
Manage complexity
Charts can describe complex
apps; provide repeatable app
installs, and serve as a single
point of authority
Easy updates
Take the pain out
of updates with in-place
upgrades and custom
hooks
Simple sharing
Charts are easy to
version, share, and host
on public or private
servers
Rollbacks
Use helm rollout to
roll back to an older
version of a release with
ease
