Hello all,
I would like to present a Kubernetes Development SIG.
I initially thought of an "operator SIG" but I think a wider SIG about
programming components and services with Kubernetes APIs and internal
components made more sense (inspired by the "Programming Kubernetes" book).
I am using some of the fields/titles described in this document [1] as the
proposal template.
Proposal Name
============
SIG: Kubernetes Development
Summary
=======
A SIG for people interested in using, developing, extending kubernetes for
Fedora components and services.
Owner
=====
Name: Leonardo Rossetti (lrossett)
Email: lrossett(a)redhat.com
Benefit to Fedora
=============
Development Experience and Learning
----------------------------------------------------
A place to exchange and discuss kubernetes development design and patterns.
Extending kubernetes is not that straightforward so this SIG would be a
good place to learn more about it.
Kubernetes can be extended in the following areas:
* Kubectl Plugins
* Custom API Servers
* Custom Controllers / Operators
Operator Development
-------------------------------
The Operator SDK [3] is the shining new framework when developing custom
kubernetes controllers nas has become a popular tool for packaging and
deploying applications in kubernetes.
Some Fedora services and components could leverage the usage of an operator
(as we are doing with MBBOX [2]) but other services could be deployed via
operators as well and even the mbbox operator could be split into smaller
operators.
Kubernetes DevOps
---------------------------
The SIG could also be a place for sysadmins and ops engineers to discuss
the challenges, practices and tooling of monitoring, deploying and running
operators, api servers and other related kubernetes components in
production.
