# Project Scope
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Pinniped project is guided by the following principles.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Pinniped lets you plug any external identity providers into Kubernetes.
|
||
|
|
These integrations follow enterprise-grade security principles.
|
||
|
|
- Pinniped is easy to install and use on any Kubernetes cluster via distribution-specific integration mechanisms.
|
||
|
|
- Pinniped uses a declarative configuration via Kubernetes APIs.
|
||
|
|
- Pinniped provides optimal user experience when authenticating to many clusters at one time.
|
||
|
|
- Pinniped provides enterprise-grade security posture via secure defaults and revocable or very short-lived credentials.
|
||
|
|
- Where possible, Pinniped will contribute ideas and code to upstream Kubernetes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
