Extending the API Server with Admission Webhooks

Intercept and validate or mutate Kubernetes API requests in flight using validating and mutating admission webhooks to enforce cluster policy.

Dynamic admission uses webhooks: mutating webhooks change objects, and validating webhooks accept or reject them.
