+MetalLB
+===
+
+This component provides loadbalancer capabilities within the cluster. Since physical clusters might don't have a LB in front, no cloud provider integration and want to provide `loadbalancer`-type services as part of deployments, metallb provides exactly this. This installation uses the L2 capabilities since the focus are small clusters without a BGP remote.
