Intro + Deep Dive: Cloud-Provider SIG
summary
SIG Cloud-Provider explains a concrete program to extract hundreds of thousands of lines of in-tree cloud code into a new Cloud Controller Manager model with out-of-tree providers, targeting completion by the end of the year and claiming ~50–100MB binary size savings. DigitalOcean reports running the external CCM in production for months. Migration pain points are documentation, default flags, and dependency/version mismatches; testing uses TestGrid and provider-run conformance jobs. Topics still open: rate-limiting, repo organization, and clear upgrade/version policies.
