OLM v1 components overview¶
Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) v1 uses two key microservice components, Operator Controller and Catalogd, to unpack content and manage extensions on your cluster.
- Operator Controller
- Extends Kubernetes with an API to install and manage Operators and extensions using metadata from Catalogd.
- Catalogd
- Unpacks file-based catalog (FBC) content and hosts metadata so users can discover installable extensions.
