The VMware Tanzu Mission Control Concepts documentation provides conceptual information describing VMware Tanzu Mission Control™.

To help you get started with Tanzu Mission Control, this information provides a conceptual walk-through of what it is, has, and does. This publication introduces the Tanzu Mission Control service and console, and the concepts surrounding how you can use it to manage your Kubernetes clusters.
