An AI/ML-Driven Approach to Platform Lifecycle Management
summary
A Kubernetes-native control plane called Cordant manages metal-to-model stacks and multicluster multicloud ops, using ClusterAPI + k0s for templated cluster provisioning and a catalog of 70+ service templates (Calico, ArgoCD, GPU operators, etc.). Policy enforcement and GitOps run via Sveltos and template-driven templates, observability uses Prometheus/OpenTelemetry, and feature flags use OpenFeature. Agentic workflows wire runtime context via Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable predictive autoscaling and proactive remediation.
