Containers and microservices have revolutionized the way applications are deployed on the cloud. Since its launch in 2014, Kubernetes has become a de-facto standard as a container orchestration tool. Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes that makes it easy to install and manage applications on your Kubernetes cluster. One of the benefits of using Helm is that it allows you to package all of the components required to run an application into a single, versioned artifact called a Helm chart.

An advanced, open-source technology called Kubernetes is used to manage, scale and deploy containerised applications automatically. Kubernetes offers a strong architecture that enables development and operations teams to effectively manage applications of several containers. Kubernetes was made by Google engineers. They shared it for free in 2014, and now a group called CNCF takes care of Kubernetes. People really like using Kubernetes to manage apps inside containers.
