Overview

Catalog is a collection of applications that a user can deploy to Kubernetes clusters as a workload template, a workload, or as a blueprint add-on. During the workload template/workload/add-on creation, users can choose from apps in a Catalog and add values.yaml files to the workload template/workload/add-on to override default values.
