April Online Meetup - Hypper: Dependency-aware package management for Kubernetes

Apr 22, 2021

Introducing Hypper, a new package manager for Kubernetes designed with cluster administrators in mind. Hypper is built on Helm and charts but makes some different assumptions around multi-tenancy and dependent charts (which can be useful with CRD handling). Where Helm assumes a user could be one of many users running in multi-tenant, Hypper assumes the user is a cluster administrator managing a cluster.

Agenda:

  • What is Hypper and how is it different from Helm
  • Annotating for extra features
  • Demonstrating installing a simple chart
  • Demonstrating installing with shared system dependencies
  • The road ahead
