Helm has been created by the folks at Deis and was donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. Recently, Helm released version 2.0.0.
Helm is made of two components: A server called Tiller, which runs inside your Kubernetes cluster and a client called helm that runs on your local machine. A package is called a chart to keep with the maritime theme. Read the birthday retrospective from Matt Butcher to get the historical context of the naming.
