IBM Application Navigator overview

IBM Application Navigator is designed to satisfy a need for application operators to focus on containerized applications instead of the infrastructure view that the Kubernetes platform consoles provide. This IBM design yields a superior user experience for applications that dramatically surpasses the infrastructure view. For more information, see https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/application .

Using IBM Application Navigator, you can visually navigate to the respective components of the applications. Each component is a Kubernetes resource, such as a deployment or service resource, and has a Kind. IBM Application Navigator provides action menu items by Kind. These menu items provide URLs and scriptable commands that enable the navigation to, and operation of, other tools in context for the selected component.
