Ark gives you tools to back up and restore your Kubernetes cluster resources and persistent volumes. Ark lets you:
- Take backups of your cluster and restore in case of loss.
- Copy cluster resources to other clusters.
- Replicate your production environment for development and testing environments.
Ark consists of:
- A server that runs on your cluster
- A command-line client that runs locally
You can run Ark in clusters on a cloud provider or on-premises. For detailed information, see Compatible Storage Providers.
The documentation provides a getting started guide, plus information about building from source, architecture, extending Ark, and more.
If you encounter issues, review the troubleshooting docs, file an issue, or talk to us on the #ark-dr channel on the Kubernetes Slack server.
