Fairwinds Insights is Kubernetes governance and security software that offers security alerting, guardrails and compliance findings and cost optimization advice. Fairwinds Insights integrates with Datadog so you have a single location to view all of your reports.
The Fairwinds Insights Admission Controller runs every time a new resource is added to the cluster. If the resource violates your organization’s policies, the Admission Controller will reject it and notify the client.
Fairwinds Insights continuously monitors multiple clusters against security configurations to reduce risk and ensure best practices are followed. Insights pinpoints your container and Kubernetes risks, prioritizes risks, provides remediation guidance and status tracking.
Teams can build and enforce customized policies via OPA and integrate into every part of Fairwinds Insights including CI/CD pipelines, the admission controller and the in-cluster agent. Insights includes a library of OPA templates.
Insights monitors CPU and memory usage to provide recommendations on resource limits and requests. Maximize the efficiency of CPU and memory utilization for your Kubernetes workloads.
Fairwinds Insights tightly integrates into your CI/CD pipeline to shift security left. DevOps teams can prevent misconfigurations throughout CI/CD and provide remediation advice to developers, free from manual intervention. Developers are free to develop with safety nets in place.
Fairwinds Insights delivers container runtime monitoring and integrates into the CI/CD process. Insights tracks known vulnerabilities in containers, prioritizes findings by severity and offers remediation. It integrates with ticketing and assignment workflows for status tracking of remediation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Fairwinds Insights work?
Fairwinds Insights provides a unified, multi-cluster view into three categories of Kubernetes configuration issues: security, efficiency, and reliability. Fairwinds Insights makes it easy to deploy multiple open-source tools through a single helm installation. This one-time install helps engineers avoid custom work for installing and configuring each tool. The software also adds policy management capabilities so engineering teams can define and enforce guardrails for deployments into Kubernetes clusters.
What’s a plugin?
Fairwinds Insights refers to the tools integrated with the software as ‘plugins.’
What’s an Agent?
Fairwinds Insights refers to the included helm chart as the ‘Fairwinds Insights Agent.’
What happens to my data?
Fairwinds Insights aggregates findings from each plugin and publishes it into a multi-cluster view for easy consumption, prioritization, and issue tracking.
What plugins does Fairwinds Insights include?
Fairwinds Insights provides integrations for a variety of great open source tools you use today, including Polaris, Goldilocks, Open Policy Agent, and Trivy Container Scanning. For the complete list, please visit the Fairwinds Insights documentation center. Just a few of the example findings are listed below:
