Tiller

Tiller is the in-cluster component of Helm. It interacts directly with the Kubernetes API server to install, upgrade, query, and remove Kubernetes resources. It also stores the objects that represent releases.

Helm Tiller was a core component of the software in its initial releases, which used a client-server architecture for which Tiller was the server. Helm Tiller acted as an intermediary between users and the Kubernetes API server, and handled role-based access control (RBAC) and the rendering of Helm charts for deployment to the cluster. With the first stable release of Helm version 3 on Nov. 13, however, Tiller was removed entirely, and Helm version 3 now communicates directly with the Kubernetes API Server.
