Manage your Cluster

In this section, you can find guides on managing a Teleport cluster after deploying it.

Use dynamic resources

In Teleport, dynamic resources let you adjust the behavior of your Teleport cluster as your infrastructure changes. Teleport provides three methods for applying dynamic resources: the tctl client tool, Teleport Terraform provider, and Kubernetes Operator. Read Using Dynamic Resources for more information.

Configure your cluster

Get to know the tools you can use to apply settings to your cluster, all of which work well with infrastructure-as-code solutions, including the tctl client, Terraform provider, and Kubernetes Operator.

Admin guides

The Admin Guides section describes how to perform routine administrative tasks in your Teleport cluster, such as upgrading the teleport binary or adding labels to Teleport resources.

Operations

The Operations section describes how to perform critical, infrequent tasks such as achieving scalability, upgrading a cluster, and rotating Teleport's certificate authority.

Security

While Teleport is designed with security in mind, there are steps you can take to ensure that your cluster is as secure as possible. Read about these in the Security section.

Integrations

Teleport integrates with third-party software in order to enable secure access to your infrastructure. The Integrations section describes Teleport's Kubernetes Operator, Terraform Provider, and other integrations.

Diagnostics

To get visibility into the performance of the Teleport services running in your infrastructure, you can use Teleport's built-in metrics, traces, and profiling. Learn more in the Diagnostics section.

Export audit events

Teleport's Auth Service maintains an audit log that tracks events in your cluster, such when a user begins an SSH session or attempts to authenticate. You can get insight into how users are interacting with your Teleport cluster by exporting audit events to your log management solution. See how in the Exporting Audit Events guides.
