Use cases

Each guide below walks through a real problem kuik is designed to solve, with the CRD configuration to address it.

Automatically route images to a proxy cache registry Rewrite Pod images on the fly to a proxy cache registry, with no spec changes to your workloads.

Better performance with local registry Mirror images to a registry close to your cluster to speed up pulls and reduce egress.

Detect missing images before outage Monitor image availability across registries and get alerted before ImagePullBackOff reaches production.

Overcome public registry limitations Route around rate limits and outages by replicating or mirroring the images you depend on.

Protect images from garbage collection Back up the images currently used by running Pods to a second registry before upstream garbage collection removes them.
