Combining Argo CD (GitOps), Crossplane (Control Plane), And Kubevela (OAM)
Can we make Kubernetes disappear? Can we make infrastructure and application management so simple that anyone can do it? Can we leverage DevOps, SRE, ops, and sysadmin experience to create a system that would make developers autonomous? TL;DR We can do that by combining ArgoCD (GitOps), Crossplane (control plane), Kubevela (OAM), and a few other tools.

How can we create and manage Kubernetes clusters on-prem or in Cloud? How can we manage our clusters across providers and regions? Can Rancher and Rancher Kubernetes Engine (RKE) help us with those and other similar tasks? Can we use it to manage clusters no matter whether they are in AWS, Azure, Google Cloud (GCP), DigitalOcean, Linode, VMWare, and other Cloud providers as well as in our own on-prem datacenters?
Continue readingShipa – A Kubernetes platform from developer’s perspective
Can we have a platform that helps developers deploy, manage, and monitor their applications without going into all the details behind Kubernetes? Shipa might be one such platform.
In this video, we’re exploring Shipa from the developer’s perspective. One of the upcoming videos will go through parts of Shipa related to the work operators, sysadmins, SREs, or platform managers are doing.
