Hello @gyliu513,

Operator-Lifecycle-Manager (olm) was once called Application-Lifecycle-Manager (ALM). The alm-xxx code that you see lying around are legacy artifacts.

Closing this issue for now, please reopen if you have additional questions.

Good to know, thanks @awgreene

@ecordell Although I closed this, should we consider removing alm-xxx references? I believe that there are CI/CD tests and a few other components that rely on some of these labels but we may benefit from a refactor - could be marked as a good first issue.
