Kubernetes Deployment and Management: From Platform to API
summary
Compares two Kubernetes delivery models: using Kubernetes as a platform with IaC to provision AWS managed services, versus treating Kubernetes as a centralized API and using in-cluster controllers to manage both K8s objects and AWS resources. Reviews open-source tools and AWS offerings that support those approaches, and presents a concrete multi-environment Amazon EKS solution using Flux CD for GitOps and Crossplane for resource control.
