NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

More and more teams are using the Kubernetes Operators pattern to manage their Kubernetes clusters. We used to recommend Crossplane for this, and now we have an alternative tool, Terraform Cloud Operator for Kubernetes. This tool integrates Terraform Cloud and Kubernetes by extending the Kubernetes control plane to enable lifecycle management of cloud and on-premise infrastructures through Kubernetes manifests. Our team uses it to provision resources from Kubernetes namespaces and RoleBindings to cloud database instances and other SaaS resources. We quite like it because it leverages the Terraform module, which is a more familiar abstraction layer for us to operate cloud resources.
