kcp: Scaling The Kubernetes Control Plane For The Multi-Clust...
summary
kcp presents a horizontally scalable control plane that creates Logical Clusters called workspaces, each a full Kubernetes API without nodes, pods, or kubelets and provisioned in seconds. It ships as a single Go binary, runs on laptop or as a global multi‑region control plane with caching and aggregated APIs, and routes CRD versions to different backing controllers so V1alpha1 and V1alpha2 can coexist. It enables offering APIs as a Service and simulating thousands of isolated clusters.
