Operator Framework to Manage Production Grade Stateful Workloads

Explore a conference talk on leveraging the Operator Framework to manage production-grade stateful workloads in eBay's Kubernetes environment. Learn how eBay tackled the challenge of containerizing big data applications in production by developing a framework inspired by CoreOS Operator pattern. Discover how this framework simplifies the management of multi-component, geographically distributed stateful workloads on Kubernetes. Understand how users can deploy various applications, including databases, message queues, and streaming processors, using a single YAML file. Gain insights into the custom-designed workflow engine that enables deployment across multiple Kubernetes clusters and automates component management. Examine the framework's production-grade reliability and high availability features, including self-healing, scaling, upgrading, and configuring capabilities.
