= About OperatorHub
_OperatorHub_ is the web console interface in {product-title} that cluster administrators use to discover and install Operators. With one click, an Operator can be pulled from its off-cluster source, installed and subscribed on the cluster, and made ready for engineering teams to self-service manage the product across deployment environments using the Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM).

Cluster administrators can choose from catalogs grouped into the following categories:
[cols="2a,8a",options="header"]
|===
|Category |Description
|Red Hat Operators
|Red Hat products packaged and shipped by Red Hat. Supported by Red Hat.
|Certified Operators
|Products from leading independent software vendors (ISVs). Red Hat partners with ISVs to package and ship. Supported by the ISV.
|Red Hat Marketplace
|Certified software that can be purchased from link:https://marketplace.redhat.com/[Red Hat Marketplace].
|Community Operators
|Optionally-visible software maintained by relevant representatives in the link:https://github.com/operator-framework/community-operators[operator-framework/community-operators] GitHub repository. No official support.

[NOTE]
====
OperatorHub content automatically refreshes every 60 minutes.

Operators on OperatorHub are packaged to run on OLM. This includes a YAML file called a ClusterServiceVersion (CSV) containing all of the CRDs, RBAC rules, Deployments, and container images required to install and securely run the Operator. It also contains user-visible information like a description of its features and supported Kubernetes versions.
The Operator SDK can be used to assist developers packaging their Operators for use on OLM and OperatorHub. If you have a commercial application that you want to make accessible to your customers, get it included using the certification workflow provided by Red Hat's ISV partner portal at link:https://connect.redhat.com[connect.redhat.com].
