About:
qbec is a command-line tool that extends Jsonnet to manage Kubernetes resources across multiple clusters and environments. It allows you to define configurations once and selectively apply them to different targets, handling variable substitution and secrets management. This provides a consistent, repeatable, and version-controlled approach to deploying complex applications.
Key Features:
  • Multi-cluster and multi-environment management
  • Jsonnet-based configuration for reusable infrastructure code
  • Built-in support for secrets management
  • Diff and apply workflows for safe deployments
Use Cases:
  • Managing distinct staging and production Kubernetes clusters
  • Deploying microservices with environment-specific configurations
  • Implementing GitOps workflows for infrastructure management
Alternatives:
  • kustomize – Uses YAML overlays instead of Jsonnet, often preferred for simpler use cases
  • helm – Uses Go templates and chart packages, more widely adopted in the ecosystem
  • terraform – Manages cloud infrastructure beyond Kubernetes, with a different state management approach
