Disclaimer

kOVHernetes is a toy project written for testing purposes. It is not supported by OVH in any manner.

Although I strive to enforce a reasonably high level of security by default, no security audit has been performed on this software or the elements of infrastructure it helps to generate.

Use at your own risk.
