Controller¶

The controller is the “brain” of the Deis platform. A controller manages Applications and their Containers.

The controller is in charge of:

• Authenticating and authorizing clients
• Processing client API calls
• Managing containers that perform work for applications
• Managing proxies that route traffic to containers
• Managing users, keys and other base configuration

The controller stack includes:

• Django API Server for handling API calls
