Sealer is a CNCF CLI tool that packages a Kubernetes cluster together with all application dependencies (container images, YAML manifests, Helm charts) into a single ClusterImage built from a Kubefile. It then runs, shares, scales, and upgrades those clusters via a Clusterfile, similar to how Docker handles container images.

Use cases

  • package a kubernetes cluster and apps into a single image
  • deploy kubernetes in an air-gapped environment
  • deliver distributed applications as one artifact
  • install a k8s cluster offline in minutes
  • scale or upgrade a kubernetes cluster declaratively
  • share a full cluster image through a registry

When to avoid

  • you only need plain container image builds (use Docker/BuildKit)
  • you manage clusters with existing tools like kubeadm, kops, or Terraform and don't need image packaging
  • you need managed Kubernetes rather than self-installed clusters
