## What is the Kubernetes Operator?

The ngrok Kubernetes Operator is the best way to use ngrok if your applications run in Kubernetes environments.
It comes with custom resources for configuration and also supports both Ingress resources as well as the new cross-platform Gateway API configuration resources.
When using Kubernetes Ingresses or the Gateway API resources, the ngrok Kubernetes Operator will translate them into managed instances of the ngrok custom resources for you.

The ngrok Kubernetes Operator is deployed to a cluster and allows developers to self-service endpoints to their apps and services using a shared ngrok account.

Check out the [how it works](/k8s/how-it-works) and [architecture](/k8s/installation/architecture) pages for more info on how the operator functions.
