Kubernetes Beyond
summary
Claim: Kubernetes is an extensible orchestration framework that can manage non-container tasks by adding types and controllers. The demo builds a Custom Resource Definition plus an Operator pattern (controller + informer + reconciliation loop) to turn a Certificate CR into a Kubernetes Secret via Let's Encrypt ACME challenges. Implementation uses the kubernetes client libraries and generated controller scaffolding (three ~300-line files), deploys as a pod, and begins the ACME challenge on the cluster but cannot complete DNS validation inside minikube network.
