This topic introduces you to Supply Chain Choreographer.
Overview
Supply Chain Choreographer is based on open source Cartographer. It allows App Operators to create pre-approved paths to production by integrating Kubernetes resources with the elements of their existing toolchains, for example, Jenkins.
Each pre-approved supply chain creates a path to production. Orchestrating supply chain resources including, test, build, scan, and deploy allows developers to focus on delivering value to their users and provides App Operators the assurance that all code in production has passed through all the steps of an approved workflow.
