# Source Controller
|
|
|
|
The main role of the source management component is to provide a common interface for artifacts acquisition.
|
|
The source API defines a set of Kubernetes objects that cluster admins and various automated operators can
|
|
interact with to offload the Git and Helm repositories operations to a dedicated controller.
