    Lens - The way the world runs Kubernetes

  • https://k8slens.dev/ solves this exact issue via a feature called Spaces... Long story short, Cluster admin can give specific access to a Kubernetes cluster without sharing the KubeConfig file... You can create specific teams for your "Space" and give different access to each team via role bindings etc... It's pretty neat. Here's a blog that explains this in depth and how to do it... https://medium.com/k8slens/how-to-give-developers-secure-access-to-kubernetes-clusters-c6025f0dd288

  • kube-oidc-proxy

    Reverse proxy to authenticate to managed Kubernetes API servers via OIDC.

  • We use Keycloak for this purpose. We deploy an OIDC-proxy to the kube-api (https://github.com/jetstack/kube-oidc-proxy), then use the kubectl plugin 'kubelogin' (aka oidc-login if you use krew - https://github.com/int128/kubelogin). This gives us the ability to have no user secrets in our KUBECONFIG, and to use Keycloak's Active Directory/LDAP user & group federation to control access to clusters. With this, downloading the KUBECONFIG is self-service, and adding users to new clusters is as easy as adding them to a group in AD.
