## RBAC compatibility
For each project under a group with a Kubernetes cluster, GitLab will
create a restricted service account with
[
`edit`
privileges
](
https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/rbac/#user-facing-roles

in the project namespace.

## Cluster precedence
GitLab will use the project's cluster before using any cluster belonging
to the group containing the project if the project's cluster is available and not disabled.
In the case of sub-groups, GitLab
will use
the cluster of the closest ancestor group
If the project's cluster is available and not disabled, GitLab uses the
project's cluster before using any cluster belonging to the group containing
the project.
In the case of sub-groups, GitLab
uses
the cluster of the closest ancestor group
to the project, provided the cluster is not disabled.
## Multiple Kubernetes clusters **(PREMIUM)**
With
GitLab Premium, you can associate more than one Kubernetes clusters to your
group. That way you can have different clusters for different environments,
like dev, staging, production, etc
.
