Kubernetes Cluster Visualization

Overview

This project provides a Kubernetes Cluster Visualization Tool built with Dash, Dash-Cytoscape, and the Kubernetes Python Client. The tool dynamically fetches Kubernetes cluster data and visually represents nodes, pods, and services in an interactive graph.

Key Features:

• Interactive Visualization: Graphical representation of Kubernetes nodes, pods, and services.
• Dynamic Layouts: Switch between grid, circle, breadth-first, and random layouts.
• Node Interactivity: Click nodes to view detailed information.
• Real-Time Data Fetching: Uses Kubernetes Python Client for live data retrieval.
