<p>Helm is a tool for managing Kubernetes charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources.Some time for beginner its very confusing So what is basic difference between Helm,helm and tiller.?</p>

<p>Helm is made of two components: the CLI binary named <code>helm</code> that allows you to perform communication with a remote component, named <code>tiller</code> that lives inside your Kubernetes cluster that is responsible to perform patches and changes to resources you ask to manage.</p>

<p>In fact, once deployed <code>tiller</code> using the command <code>helm init</code>, you can notice a new <em>Deployment</em> resource (commonly named <code>tiller-deploy</code>) running inside <code>kube-system</code> namespace.</p>

<p>The real question should be <em>why to use Tiller and not interacting directly with Kubernetes API</em>?</p>

<p>As usual, it is a matter of <a href="https://github.com/helm/helm/blob/master/docs/securing_installation.md" rel="noreferrer">security concerns</a>, recapped by these list items:</p>

<pre><code>- Role-based access control, or RBAC
- Tiller's gRPC endpoint and its usage by Helm
- Tiller release information
- Helm charts
</code></pre>
