There are lots of Operators for Kubernetes out there. But how many have you built that are designed for scale across many clusters and regions, in a Platform Engineering context?
In this short workshop we'll interact with and build operators that work across multiple clusters and regions, using an IAM abstraction pattern developed at Thoughtworks that is designed to work not only across regions but across cloud providers. For a preview of what we will be doing, take a look at my Kubecon talk (time range 10:30-18:00 for the operator overview) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkteV6Mzjfs&t=785s
