Crossplane

Platform resources managed through control-plane APIs

Visit Crossplane official site

What it does

Crossplane extends Kubernetes control planes through providers and composed resources, creating declarative APIs that manage platform capabilities through the components and integrations selected for the application’s infrastructure and resource model.

When to use it

For a self-service platform, consult composition and provider guides to assemble resource specifications into the shared interfaces exposed to application teams.
