Introduction

The Node Feature Discovery Operator manages the detection of hardware features and configuration in a Kubernetes cluster by labeling the nodes with hardware-specific information. The Node Feature Discovery (NFD) will label the host with node-specific attributes, like PCI cards, kernel, or OS version, and many more.

The NFD Operator is based on the Operator Framework an open source toolkit to manage Kubernetes native applications, called Operators, in an effective, automated, and scalable way.
