Automating Kubernetes Resource Management Over GitOps for the Telco Cloud RAN Prime Time
Talkat Cloud Native Telco Day Europe 2025 · on Tuesday, 2025-04-01· at 17:05· Level 3 | ICC Capital Suite 10-12·
summary
Porch automates turning generic KPT blueprints (lists of KRM YAML) into fully specified deployment packages, applying chains of KM functions and producing KPT package variants for per-site customization. It performs package hydration, supports an approval flow and publishes final deployables to Git for Argo/Flux, enabling fan-out to 1,000s of Cloud‑RAN edge clusters. Recent work adds a relational DB to avoid frequent git ops, faster bulk approvals and consistency fixes; project is functional but still maturing across v4→v5.
