Building a Managed Platform While Maintaining a Good Developer Experience
summary
A reusable Kubernetes platform is built that bundles opinionated components—Flux, Contour, Prometheus Operator plus external-dns, cert-manager, external-secrets, OPA and OpenTelemetry—so developers get a consistent interface across clouds. A custom namespace operator automates creating a Git repo, SSH keys, quotas, network policies and RoleBindings; a demo shows onboarding and repo creation, a blocked pod due to policy is fixed by adding a securityContext, then HTTPS works with a Let’s Encrypt cert and metrics/logs/traces appear in the platform.
