About Kustomize.io
Kustomize traverses a Kubernetes manifest to add, remove or update configuration options without forking. It is available both as a standalone binary and as a native feature of kubectl. Purely declarative approach to configuration customization. Manage an arbitrary number of distinctly customized Kubernetes configurations. Available as a standalone binary for extension and integration into other services. Every artifact that kustomize uses is plain YAML and can be validated and processed as such. Kustomize encourages a fork/modify/rebase workflow.

Kyverno
Kyverno is a policy engine designed for Kubernetes. With Kyverno, policies are managed as Kubernetes resources and no new language is required to write policies. This allows using familiar tools such as kubectl, Git, and Kustomize to manage policies. Kyverno policies can validate, mutate, and generate Kubernetes resources plus ensure OCI image supply chain security. The Kyverno CLI can be used to test policies and validate resources as part of a CI/CD pipeline. Kyverno allows cluster administrators to manage environment specific configurations independently of workload configurations and enforce configuration best practices for their clusters. Kyverno can be used to scan existing workloads for best practices, or can be used to enforce best practices by blocking or mutating API requests. Block non-conformant resources using admission controls, or report policy violations.

Flux
Flux is a set of continuous and progressive delivery solutions for Kubernetes that are open and extensible. The latest version of Flux brings many new features, making it more flexible and versatile. Flux is a CNCF Incubating project. Flux and Flagger deploy apps with canaries, feature flags, and A/B rollouts. Flux can also manage any Kubernetes resource. Infrastructure and workload dependency management are built-in. Flux enables application deployment (CD) and (with the help of Flagger) progressive delivery (PD) through automatic reconciliation. Flux can even push back to Git for you with automated container image updates to Git (image scanning and patching). Flux works with your Git providers (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, can even use s3-compatible buckets as a source), all major container registries, and all CI workflow providers. Kustomize, Helm, RBAC, and policy-driven validation (OPA, Kyverno, admission controllers) so it simply falls into place.
