About Kured

Kured (Kubernetes Reboot Daemon) is an open-source daemonset that performs safe, automated node reboots in a Kubernetes cluster when the underlying operating system indicates that a reboot is required. It is commonly used to apply kernel patches and other OS-level updates that require a restart, while ensuring that cluster workloads remain available throughout the process by cordoning and draining nodes before rebooting.
