A Fleet Plan on clusters refers to a strategic approach for managing and coordinating resources across multiple clusters. It involves creating a comprehensive plan to streamline operations on bunch of clusters available within one or more fleet(s), and ensure efficient utilization of cluster resources. With Fleet Plan, users can effortlessly perform a wide range of operations such as upgrades, backups, patch, and scaling across their clusters. The base roles Infra admin and Org Admin are allowed to create and run the fleet plan

Benefits

Users Benefit from Fleet Plan in the following Ways:
