Kubernetes annotations and labels summary

For all customers on a paid plan, Buoyant Cloud consumes and uses a number of existing Kubernetes labels and annotations, and supports new annotations specific to Buoyant Cloud.

  • app.kubernetes.io/version: If buoyant.cloud/version is not set, then this label (if set) will be used as the version of the workload in Buoyant Cloud.
  • buoyant.cloud/excluded:true: Excludes a workload from Buoyant Cloud.
  • buoyant.cloud/tags: comma-delimited list of key:value pairs that are descriptors of a workload, e.g. env:prod,tier:1,team:payments. If set, these key:value pairs will be displayed on a workload’s detail page. They will also be added to other pages, and you will be able to filter the service list and event list by tags in the future.
