summary

Working group incubates and graduates tools that map to three canonical models — namespaces-as-a-service, multi-cluster (one cluster per tenant), and virtual clusters — and ships a benchmark and conformance tests. Concrete projects include Hierarchical Namespace Controller (used in production at Mercari) and virtual-cluster implementations; sandbox runtimes like gVisor/Kata and node isolation are recommended for hardening the data plane. Remaining work focuses on tenant-aware add‑ons (DNS, ingress, CNI) and usable docs/wizards, not API rewrites.
