Description

Crossplane is an open-source add-on for Kubernetes that allows platform teams to create infrastructure from various providers while offering higher-level self-service APIs for application teams to utilize, all without requiring any coding. You can provision and oversee cloud services and infrastructure using kubectl commands. By enhancing your Kubernetes cluster, Crossplane delivers Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) for any infrastructure or managed service. These detailed resources can be combined into advanced abstractions that are easily versioned, managed, deployed, and utilized with your preferred tools and existing workflows already in place within your clusters. Crossplane was developed to empower organizations to construct their cloud environments similarly to how cloud providers develop theirs, utilizing a control plane approach. As a project under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), Crossplane broadens the Kubernetes API to facilitate the management and composition of infrastructure. Operators can define policies, permissions, and other protective measures through a custom API layer generated by Crossplane, ensuring that governance and compliance are maintained throughout the infrastructure lifecycle. This innovation paves the way for streamlined cloud management and enhances the overall developer experience.

Description

IBM Cloud® Schematics streamlines automation by utilizing declarative Terraform templates to achieve the intended cloud infrastructure setup. By seamlessly integrating with Red Hat® Ansible, it enhances configuration, management, and provisioning for both software and applications while also connecting with various IBM Cloud Services. Through Terraform-as-a-Service, DevOps teams can leverage a high-level configuration language to effectively model their desired resources in the cloud, thereby facilitating Infrastructure as Code (IaC). Effortlessly install software packages and application code on your infrastructure, allowing your team to build, deploy, and refine their automation processes. This approach significantly enhances the DevOps lifecycle, covering everything from planning and builds to software testing and application monitoring. Additionally, by utilizing Satellite alongside Schematics, organizations can automate the establishment of Satellite locations and Red Hat OpenShift® on IBM Cloud, streamlining operations and improving efficiency across the board. The combination of these tools fosters a more agile and responsive cloud infrastructure management strategy.
