Thanks for the answer. So, again, coming from a place of having done a couple passes of the basics, but otherwise completely ignorant. What is the advantage of having that kind of config info baked into a package vs having it in etcd? Again, I really appreciate it.

When you deploy with Kubernetes, you need some yaml or json files to define the configuration of your stack. Depending on the complexity of the stack, this could grow to a significant number of files. Helm allows this collection of files to be put into a single shareable package. Then, rather than calling the 'kubectl' command a number of times to deploy each individual component, you'd make one call to Helm to do it all at once.
