Reflector is a Kubernetes controller that monitors secrets, configmaps, and certificates and automatically replicates them across namespaces. It is deployed as a cluster addon, typically via Helm, and supports cert-manager certificate rotation propagation.
Use cases
- sync a TLS secret across all namespaces
- replicate cert-manager certificates to other namespaces
- mirror configmaps between namespaces in a k8s cluster
- avoid duplicating docker-registry secrets per namespace
- propagate wildcard certificate ingress secrets cluster-wide
When to choose
- you need secrets or configmaps available in multiple namespaces without manual copying
- you use cert-manager and need certificates mirrored to other namespaces
- you want a lightweight, Helm-installable controller with amd64/arm64 support
When to avoid
- you need cross-cluster replication rather than within a single cluster
- your platform already provides a native secret-sync mechanism (e.g., external secrets operator or k8s 1.29+ sync features)
- you only need secrets in one namespace
