Kubecost helm chart

Helm chart for the Kubecost project, which is created to monitor and manage Kubernetes resource spend. Please contact [email protected] or visit kubecost.com for more info.

While Helm is the recommended install path, these resources can also be deployed with the following command:

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubecost/cost-analyzer-helm-chart/master/kubecost.yaml --namespace kubecost
