Scenario:
Let’s create a Virtual Kubernetes cluster with sealed-secrets installed in it in just 60 seconds with Klusternetes(KNTS)
Introduction :
The kubeseal utility uses asymmetric crypto to encrypt secrets that only the controller can decrypt.
Klusternetes is a platform that allows you to create a Kubernetes cluster in a few seconds. It also provides some of the leading DevOps tools as add-ons while creating your Cluster and provides a Service URL for add-ons that have UI.
