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

Kuma provides an enterprise service mesh that seamlessly operates across multiple clouds and clusters, whether on Kubernetes or virtual machines. With just a single command, users can deploy the service mesh and automatically connect to other services through its integrated service discovery features, which include Ingress resources and remote control planes. This solution is versatile enough to function in any environment, efficiently managing resources across multi-cluster, multi-cloud, and multi-platform settings. By leveraging native mesh policies, organizations can enhance their zero-trust and GDPR compliance initiatives, thereby boosting the performance and productivity of application teams. The architecture allows for the deployment of a singular control plane that can effectively scale horizontally to accommodate numerous data planes, or to support various clusters, including hybrid service meshes that integrate both Kubernetes and virtual machines. Furthermore, cross-zone communication is made easier with Envoy-based ingress deployments across both environments, coupled with a built-in DNS resolver for optimal service-to-service interactions. Built on the robust Envoy framework, Kuma also offers over 50 observability charts right out of the box, enabling the collection of metrics, traces, and logs for all Layer 4 to Layer 7 traffic, thereby providing comprehensive insights into service performance and health. This level of observability not only enhances troubleshooting but also contributes to a more resilient and reliable service architecture.
