Question

Labeling Apps|Deployments|Components

Folks –

It would be useful to be able to apply (arbitrary) key-value labels to Apps|Deployments|Components.

If I were to deploy a large number of apps, I feel managing them would become unwieldy.

It would be helpful to expose Kubernetes’ rich labelling|annotation mechanisms to Apps developers.

This would also benefit listing|getting resources since these could be selected by labels rather than having to determine IDs.
