Are you curious about how Kubernetes communicates with the infrastructure it is deployed on? Perhaps you have heard the phrase “out-of-tree cloud provider” and wondered what it meant? Or maybe you are interested in learning how resources like Nodes, Routes, and Services work at the deepest layers? If you answered “yes” to any of those questions, then this presentation is for you. We will discuss how cloud controller managers play a vital role in connecting a Kubernetes cluster to its infrastructure. You will see how the core Kubernetes processes are built around these architectures, and learn about the history of, and future plans for cloud controllers including the Cluster Cloud Controller Manager Operator project. Expect to walk away from this talk with a more concrete understanding of how cloud controller managers operate, how to debug complex infrastructure related issues, and what to expect with the upcoming migration planned for Kubernetes version 1.24.
