Introduction
The integration between Rancher and Capsule, aims to provide a multi-tenant Kubernetes service to users, enabling:
- a self-service approach
- access to cluster-wide resources
to end-users.
Tenant users will have the ability to access Kubernetes resources through:
- Rancher UI
- Rancher Shell
- Kubernetes CLI
On the other side, administrators need to manage the Kubernetes clusters through Rancher.
Rancher provides a feature called Projects to segregate resources inside a common domain. At the same time Projects doesn't provide way to segregate Kubernetes cluster-scope resources.
Capsule as a project born for creating a framework for multi-tenant platforms, integrates with Rancher Projects enhancing the experience with Tenants.
Capsule allows tenants isolation and resources control in a declarative way, while enabling a self-service experience to tenants.
With Capsule Proxy users can also access cluster-wide resources, as configured by administrators at Tenant custom resource-level.
You can read in detail how the integration works and how to configure it, in the following guides.
