Crossplane is an open source Kubernetes addon that allows platform teams to assemble infrastructures from multiple vendors and expose higher-level self service APIs for application team consumption. kubectl allows you to provision and manage cloud infrastructure and services. Crossplane extends your Kubernetes Cluster, providing you CRDs for any infrastructure and managed service. These granular resources can be compiled into higher-level abstractions that you can version, manage, deploy, and consume using your favorite tools and processes you already integrate with your clusters. Crossplane was created to help organizations create their clouds in the same way that cloud vendors do it. Crossplane is a CNCF Project that extends Kubernetes API for managing and composing infrastructure. Crossplane allows operators to encapsulate policies and permissions behind an API line.
