Deploying Applications across Clusters

Rancher offers several ways to deploy applications across clusters, depending on version.

Fleet

Rancher v2.5 and later uses Fleet to deploy applications across clusters.

Continuous Delivery with Fleet is GitOps at scale. For more information, refer to the Fleet section.

Multi-cluster Apps

In Rancher before v2.5, the multi-cluster apps feature was used to deploy applications across clusters. The multi-cluster apps feature is deprecated, but still available as a legacy feature.

See the multi-cluster app documentation for more details.
