What is Helm on Digitalocean Managed Kubernetes?

It is a Kubernetes package manager that makes it easier for developers and operators to configure and deploy apps on Kubernetes clusters.

Helm automatically maintains customized resource definitions as well as changes to existing deployed definitions. A release is a deployed chart with the ability to be customized.
