Gatekeeper

How is Gatekeeper different from OPA?

Compared to using OPA with its sidecar kube-mgmt (aka Gatekeeper v1.0), Gatekeeper introduces the following functionality:

• An extensible, parameterized policy library
• Native Kubernetes CRDs for instantiating the policy library (aka "constraints")
• Native Kubernetes CRDs for extending the policy library (aka "constraint templates")
• Native Kubernetes CRDs for mutation support
• Audit functionality
• External data support

Getting started

Check out the installation instructions to deploy Gatekeeper components to your Kubernetes cluster.

Documentation
