The Multi-Tenant Supercluster Approach
summary
Presents a multi-tenant supercluster architecture that uses a single large Kubernetes cluster to reduce cost, centralize policy and speed scaling while keeping tenant isolation. Demonstrates a production stack: Cilium cluster mesh for cross-region networking, Netrix for infra networking, Tetragon for packet-level debugging, Rook/Ceph and Pure Storage for storage, Prometheus/Grafana and Fluent Bit for observability, and Aqua/Falco for image/runtime security; describes an Equinix footprint across 28 regions and experiments with a four-level cluster-in-cluster topology and roll/replace upgrade tooling (rk2).
