Sponsored Keynote: Crossplane - The Best Kept Secret in Platform Engineering
summary
Positions Crossplane as the control plane that models cloud APIs and composes infrastructure into reusable building blocks, enabling teams to expose infra as self-service platform APIs rather than tickets. It claims to power internal developer platforms for a bank and an athletic company, removing manual provisioning and abstracting clouds so developers request DBs, networks, and compute via declarative resources. The result is a scalable, efficient platform that centralizes policy and lifecycle control while developers focus on code.
