How to deploy the GitLab Agent for Kubernetes with limited permissions
Blog post from GitLab
The GitLab Agent for Kubernetes (agentk) is a key component for integrating GitLab and Kubernetes, facilitating GitOps operations via secure, cloud-native methods. It communicates with the GitLab Agent Server (KAS) to apply changes from GitLab-managed manifest files to Kubernetes clusters. By deploying agentk with specific namespace access, users can limit its permissions, enhancing security. The guide outlines the deployment of agentk on a Kubernetes cluster, using tools like Google Kubernetes Engine, and details the setup of service accounts, roles, and role bindings to control access. It also explains how agentk applies changes, manages applications in specified namespaces, and logs deployment activities, offering a more secure GitOps workflow by restricting agent access to selected namespaces.
