Session Recording

Building custom Kubernetes APIs often means navigating a maze of resource dependencies, controller logic, and endless YAML. Enter KRO (Kube Resource Orchestrator)—an open-source tool designed to streamline Kubernetes extensibility. With KRO, you can bundle complex infrastructure components into reusable, composable APIs, empowering teams to standardize deployments without drowning in operational overhead. In this session, we will unveil how KRO simplifies the Operator pattern by automating resource orchestration and lifecycle management. Through real-world scenarios and a live demo, see how KRO transforms Kubernetes from a platform you build for into one you build with. Come explore the future of Kubernetes extensibility—without giving away your nights and weekends to CRDs. Benefit for the audience/ecosystem? KRO simplifies Kubernetes extensibility by turning complex resource sets into reusable APIs - without writing custom controllers. This lowers the barrier to platform building, promotes standardization, and boosts productivity. Teams can deliver internal platforms faster, with less YAML and more reuse, making Kubernetes more approachable and powerful for all.
