kcp-operator

kcp-dev/kcp-operator

kcp-operator is a Kubernetes operator to deploy and run kcp instances on a Kubernetes cluster. kcp is a horizontally scalable control plane for Kubernetes-like APIs.

Features

• Create and update core components of a kcp setup (root shard, additional shards, front proxy)
• Support for multi-shard deployments of kcp
• Support for a dedicated cache-server deployment not embedded in the root shard
• Generate and refresh kubeconfigs for accessing kcp instances or specific shards
• Cross-namespace/-cluster setups of a multi-shard kcp deployment

Support Matrix

The table below marks known support of a kcp version in kcp-operator versions.

[^1]: While we try to support kcp's main branch, this support is best effort and should not be used for deploying actual kcp instances.

Feature Gates

kcp-operator supports Kubernetes-style feature gates to enable or disable experimental features. Feature gates can be configured using the --feature-gates flag when starting the operator.

Available Feature Gates

Usage

Enable feature gates when starting the operator:

# Enable a single feature
./operator --feature-gates=ConfigurationBundle=true

# Enable multiple features
./operator --feature-gates=ConfigurationBundle=true,AnotherFeature=true

For more details on feature gates, see the feature gates documentation.
