ARK - Agentic Runtime for Kubernetes
ARK is a Kubernetes-based platform that provides a runtime and enables management and orchestration of AI agents and their resources. It provides custom resource definitions (CRDs) and services to handle:
- AI model configurations.
- Autonomous agents.
- Multi-agent teams.
- Tool integrations.
- Memory persistence.
- Performance evaluation.
This documentation explains how to build, deploy, and operate agentic solutions using proven patterns and practices that are reliable for complex distributed systems.
