# Reloader vs k8s-trigger-controller
Reloader and k8s-trigger-controller are both built for same purpose. So there are quite a few similarities and differences between these.
## Similarities
- Both controllers support change detection in configmap and secrets
- Both controllers support deployment rollout
- Both controllers use SHA1 for hashing
- Both controllers have end to end as well as unit test cases.
## Differences
### Support for Daemonsets and Statefulsets.
#### k8s-trigger-controller:
k8s-trigger-controller only support for deployment rollout. It does not support daemonsets and statefulsets rollout.
#### Reloader:
Reloader supports deployment rollout as well as daemonsets and statefulsets rollout.
### Hashing usage
#### k8s-trigger-controller:
k8s-trigger-controller stores the hash value in an annotation `trigger.k8s.io/[secret|configMap]-NAME-last-hash`
#### Reloader:
Reloader stores the hash value in an environment variable `STAKATER_NAME_[SECRET|CONFIGMAP]`
