Evolving Platform Primitives: Beautiful Platforms With Kro - Jakob Möller & Adam Crowder

CNCF
AI summary

This session demonstrates how to build platforms using kro (Kube Resource Orchestrator), a CNCF project that enables teams to define composable primitives as self-service APIs. Platform engineers will learn to author APIs that automatically handle Kubernetes resource dependency ordering, dynamic wiring, and status rollup, replacing ad-hoc templating and custom controllers with a structured approach to platform abstraction.
